Epic meltdown
today
epic fail in a personal goal
epic everything
that seems like it’s going to crap
guess I’ll have days like this
but unprepared for the tidal wave…
Instead of giving up
to the abyss
and carrying out my
planned exit from
this world,
I’m packing up memories
so they’re no longer in my face
because I
just can’t see them daily anymore
and continue to
move on with my life.
It’s my response to a strong
suggestion to “Pull your ass back”
from the dangerously close edge
(more like an order from
a far-away friend
who made me laugh through my tears –
btw thank you).
It’s time
it will be therapeutic
cathartic
and brutal
all in the same instant
but I am strong
I am alive
I am grateful
I am thriving
and I am worthy
of this life I have been granted.
One setback does not
mean defeat
I WILL LAUGH AT THIS
… tomorrow.
But today
I will cry, remember,
yell, and
scream if I have to
because I am a warrior
and this
will
NOT
BEAT
Me.
Ever.
XO Lisa

Thank you for nominating me… I shall answer another day, promise, as my Epic day has led to three margaritas/ two of them with top-shelf patron kickers, leaving me unable to put two sentences together… 😂
