An arrow can be shot only by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it’s going to launch you into something great. So just take a deep breath and keep aiming.

loneliness suffocates
the words swirling
at the tip
of my sore tongue
bitten down
over
and
over
until i
cave
in
surrendering with
a white flag
white blood cells
rush in
trying
to heal
the constant stabs at
the soul
