I am at battle, have you noticed at all, when walking down a hallway, the barren expression that turns to a smile, when interactions are needed. It works for brief minutes, like getaways, a descending reality that never … lands, keeps me suspended, so I can survive, so I can make it through the day. Please don’t look for me alone, let that peace remain a facade, my marble castle, my wax paper offering a translucent image whom defines how I might need to appear; satisfied, content, confident, moving forward, always moving toward the next goal, that opportunity that allows my life to have some identity. Have I told anyone I am in a constant battle?
