The days pass so quickly, though nights last forever. Our house is so empty, though it is still so full of us. Everything is as it always was, and yet, not as it was. And, I’m still me, but not the me I once was. There’s no going back, no …

Your apathy is my apathy we both should feel ashamed, Not on a whim we act our lives, But to practices ingrained. The alarm clock rings I press the snooze I'll get five minutes more. Another Monday starts my week, oh what a saddening…

They say "As one door shuts another opens" So I went through the open door on a journey of ever decreasing circles, which led me back to the shut door. It's not so much the shut doors, it's rather having the keys to open them.

Paths… My path started so far away and has meandered from here to there, following an unlikely trail. Other paths were crossed and some were even followed for a while, but only for a while. Where my path is leading me, I can’t be sure, but …
