Far From Here
how long does one have to wait. wait for a time that may never come? life is in your hands, to change and create how you want it to be. yet what happens if you have no motivation to change, while the world around you does. everything you have ever known, changing forever. never to be the same. what happens then? end? my life is an hourglass on the edge of a table. anything has the poser to push it off. allowing gravity to take hold and bring it crashing to the ground. what is there to stop it, when the room you are in is empty? what meaning is there to fulfill a life that is empty, feels cold, and dark. is there to be hope? is there a saviour? anyone? am i to wonder this planet alone, until i meet new people so that they can change and leave too? what purpose does that have? tape can only hold together broken pieces for so long. then once again it break apart in your hands. something that shall continue on through life. people change, why cant i? why cant i grow? my body ages yet my mind is here, stuck in time. motionless. what meaning is there? I'm broken and the tape isn't holding.

if you know that you are stuck, that is the first step.
the plague of man is that he is so aware of himself and what happens to those around him, that he feels the pain from everything and everyone that his life touches. but it is also a gift, because that is what actually does give our life meaning. that fact that we can interact in such a way that we change each other and we can break or heal each other, or both. and that, at the same time, we have a responsibility to ourselves, to do what we as individuals need to do for ourselves in order to find such meaning and survive. unfortunately that often hurts other people, like you losing alicia because she had to follow her own path.
