Dramatic!

Crocodile tears!

Don’t go making a mountain out of a molehill

 

But gain perspective

To the ant, the molehill is their Everest

 

The bodies of their loved ones are caked into the dirt

unable to make the

climb

 

A 3-mile hike to him is a

easy

breezy

 

I wheeze and cough

giving myself internal pep talk after pep talk

pausing to catch my breath under the cover

of admiring flowers

 

Sensitive!

 

Hyperaware of all that isn’t normal

but feels out of control

 

Coming out of the dark and

into the light

isn’t always a good thing

 

Tunnel vision felt safe

cozy

secure

 

We live and die trying to survive the day

make this year better than the last

to keep moving forward

but never healing from the past
