marathon

too familiar
the feeling of unease.
it's unalarming
when it comes without warning.
and it means nothing
it means anything
means everything.
and then how easily it is forgotten
ignored,
shaken off and banished-
where it grows stronger
and stays dull.
and you wait again,
breathe again,
stretch again-
convince yourself again
that it still isn't stronger than you.

  2. This one is great.. very you, but also very universal. People can really relate to it (as Actor has said as well).
