and nothing works. Nothing makes the voices or the visions stop. Nothing stops you from descending into the abyss. Nothing stops you from flying too close to the sun just to come crashing to the earth. All of this over and over and over again. Preventing you from forming relationships or holding a job or grasping just the least little bit of happiness out of life. If, in one of those passing moments of stability someone decides they’ve had enough. They just can’t do it anymore. Peace.
