I feel pressed.
Crushed.
Broken by the gravity of life.
Dreams ground like wheat with a stone
Left to blow away.
An entire day on the verge of tears.
No specific reason.
Single drops never break a dam
But put together they can be unstoppable.
Hope.
A word with no internal definition.
Incomprehensible.
Pushed to the future
Steered by the past.
Eyes wide open and fixed on the rearview.
The man I am today
Is just an empty shell of a happy child.
Life is wonderful.
So amazing.
So transforming.
Can the fleeting moments of happiness
Outweigh the constant flood of pain?

^Me before I realized what life is all aboutÂ…^

I like the line: “just an empty shell of a happy child” i feel that way alot.

You’re an introspective, intelligent guy and you write very well. The unexamined life is not worth living.
