When I'm sad it rains, its been raining a lot lately. And just like that sentence I've been skirting around the edges trying to avoid direct contact with anything. I feel like I am edgeless and not in a 'you are limitless' kind of way. More like I have no idea who I am anymore and it scares the hell out of me! I don't feel sad in the same way I used to when I could attach a tag to each emotion and say I know you. I feel shattered and used like every bone in my body has come from a charity shop and I'm trying to figure out how everything works and what pieces are missing from the box. I am drowning in my own rain and every breath I try to take to remind myself you have to survive, fills my lungs a little more until I have to scream **** you! Bring it on, because I refuse to die in this weather, just like the past I cannot change it but my coat has a hood and like everything, rain is never permanent.

The changing of the weather
