Stop.

Keep your head down.

Always move forward

Never stop, never

Think

Don’t think, don’t remember

If you stop

If you blink

If you breathe

They’re back

Soft arms reaching with

Sickly grins stretching wide

I can’t run

I can’t hide

I can’t

Stop.

Please stop.

They have me again

Though I am miles away

In my head

In their hands

I am lost and they are

Fine

Normal

Completely what I am not

Give me back

To him to them to me

Let me be whole again

Please

Stop.

Someone once told me that I was braver than I could ever know, so I'm living my life to prove them right. I love writing things that remind people of the depth and fullness of life, and I pull inspiration from works of literature that have done the same for me. Above all, I know the reason I can be brave is because I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
