i've seen fire and i've seen rain


"i've thrown away so many things that could've been much more

and i just pray my problems go away if they're ignored

but that's not the way it works no that's not the way it works

when i go down i go down hard

and i take everything i've learned and teach myself some disregard

when i go down it hurts to hit the bottom

and of the things that got me there

i think, if only I had fought them"



why is it some days the world just feels like its unravelling before you
you just wake up one day and something is unexpectedly different than the day before

the distance feels so much greater, your problems feel suddenly unbearable, time speeds up and deadlines grow nearer, and everything and anything just feels too much too handle.

well maybe it's a part of growing up but whatever it is, i am certain i can't be the only one that faces it

one thing i can say even though at times it may seem life is as the old saying goes "when it rains, it pours"
at least i know the rain won't last forever and someday things are bound to turn for the better
and trust me its a beautiful thing when clarity is found
its usually subtle and instanteous, reached in the oddest and least expecting of circumstances
reached in small pieces left for you to connect together like a puzzle
and i may not be convinced clarity in all aspects of my life will ever be reached, but when it is even if its just a fragment of my puzzle solved, its an experience always more than worthwhile
