Deep breaths and tightened jaw....

Life is weird.Rather like a jack-in-the-box.You never know what it chooses to startle you with.Good stuff,bad shit.They just keep coming.People you thought knew you and loved you inside out,walk away without a word.People who you thought played a pivotal role in your life,make their exit without looking back a last time.No remorse,they move on.Those whose faces you've never seen,become your best friends over the internet.Ones you considered temporary become your life support system.Some folks you were waiting to get a break from end up leaving you in floods of tears when the time to part has finally arrived.People surprise you constantly.They walk in and outta lives as they please.They love you,make you laugh,make you cry,shatter you,change you,teach you.You cry for the ones you've lost,ache for the ones you miss and hang on,scared and alone,waiting for the next time jack springs outta his damned box.
