The amphetamines are at an all time high. The excuses stay the same. I worry that it's too much, she assures me that its not enough. I see the world around her spinning slowly out of control. She is immune to it. If I voice an opinion, the excuses shoot me down. If I stay silent, my morals and experience make me feel unsettled. I tell her that they make her cold and distant. She refuses to see it. I look into her face and it is blank. Too lost in a thought. Focused on that single issue, to not see it. I have to keep going with her, abandonment is not an option. I used to be the indulgent one, now I see it all with different eyes. I know whatβs next. But she won't let me in.
