10W. Ten Words. [the 12th.]
Eat.
Work.
Sleep.
Repeat.
Security. Stability.
But at what cost?
Sacrifices must be made.

10W. Ten Words. [the 11th.]
Close one door,
open another,
and....
...back where I started.
The circle will become a line, in due time.

"Play your cards right."
If only you'd stop shuffling them.
Just deal me a new hand.

What I learned by the end of it...
...was nothing.
18 years down the drain.

10W. Ten Words. [the 8th.]
An over-analytic,
overbearing,
misguided idiot.
That about sums it up.
Not much more to it than that.

"Follow the leader," they said.
Look where that got me.
If only I could have lead them.

All I do
is stare out this window
and think.
And the thoughts never stop.

10W. Ten Words. [the 5th.]
I'm stuck in the past,
and honestly,
it's your fault.
Only because blaming myself has gotten me nowhere.

"Where's your antidote?"
Good question.
They drain me.

Speaking hurts. Thinking hurts.
Unless it's
to you, about you.
Yet we all must go on.
