i look in the mirror and start to see the changes i've longed for; the signs of improved health weight gain. clearer skin. But i'm reminded by these simple glances that i don't have the 'right' relationship w/ happiness contentment. appearances. surfaces. i entertain the question "does growth bare no real fruit?" and that's why i resist being. i'd rather be dark. a force. a raw healing gem. a diamond in the rough.
