It has been said that time heals all wounds. I don't agree. The wounds remain. Time - the mind, protecting its sanity - covers them with some scar tissue and the pain lessens, but it is never gone.<br /> <br /> Rose Kennedy


It’s been a day.

A day that doesn’t seem like what it is.

And is anyway.

It’s been a day.

A day that drips into grey clouds and cold fingers.

Instead of warm hues.

It’s been a day.

A day that slowly injects each minute with lidocaine.

Feeling fades away.

It’s been a day.

A day that starts like any other, common, usual

But really isn’t.

It’s been a day.

A day that turns upbeat melodies to ballad harmonies.

Songbirds dying.

It’s been a day.

A day that blends sound together, all background noise.

No longer crisp tone.

It's been a day.

Even though every right decision was made. Even though every simple thought was thought. Even though nothing happened to cause it.

Even though—


It’s been a day.


It’s been a day.

A day that paints all worlds in what lies unspoken on the tongue.

Kept. Hidden.

It’s been a day.

A day that disappoints eyes and ears.

What’s wanted.

It’s been a day.

A day where rain falls because it’s wanted.

Not shunned.

It’s been a day.

A day where actions speak louder than words.

Words, instead, receive attention.

It’s been a day.

A day of drained, colorless living, and all the moon wants is to rise.

Be among the light.

It’s been a day.

A day where the moon has been ignored, until it’s time comes.

By the star’s side.

It’s been a day.

Yet, like all days,

It will come to an end.
