these things i wonder

"And once you lose yourself, you have two choices: find the person you used to be... or lose that person completely." –H.G. Wells

i wonder, is it easier to move on, keeping things the same way ever since everything had to change?

comfortable with the absence; finally accepting that this is the way things are now.

or...

do you risk your sanity for the chance of having some of it back?

does “patching things up” really fill in any empty holes, or will it just cut deeper when its gone?

will what’s given, ever be enough?

at least it's nice to be missed.

sincerely,

a cautious one, S
