This impact leads people down different paths than ones they once imagined themselves taking.(Un)Stable Looking back, I regret so many choices: not learning the language not spending more time not focusing on what was important not listening not being grateful enough Not doing so many things. but I cannot change Anything not Anymore it’s too late He’s gone. now he rests up in the Heavens; as I am left down on earth. I am happy in some ways" He is reunited with others of the past. He is part of me and he will Always be; Always in my heart. But everything else has fallen from this: the man I look up too is Crumbling the woman I look up to is Struggling the girl who has helped me along the way is Crying the wife of Him is Doleful no one is Stable like before I am not Stable I hide behind a mask I never showed my Emotions but since He Left, I no longer find joy like before I no longer think straight I no longer eat like before. I no longer sleep peacefully. I no longer am Stable I cry in the night I blame myself I bury myself in work I put a smile on my face everyday I wake up Dreading what is to Come I am not Stable few know the Truth" but even then they don’t know Everything. call me Insane call me Cowardly call me Dramatic call me Crazy it’s all the same: Words they no longer hurt me I am not Stable enough to acknowledge them. I thought I just lost Him but I lost more I lost myself along the Way. I am Unstable © 2019 Jasmine Garcia |
