In my car

"Suppress your emotions distract your mind... build four walls and hide inside... lock your doors learn to lie... live like a zombie in disguise... Study a career find a wife... make some children see them at night... confess your sins before you die... you better believe this is life... I wanted my grandma to live a little bit longer... so I could give her my love when I grew older... so she could enjoy her kids without weight on her shoulders... and she could see that what she did made us all stronger.... I'm sitting in my car in a random place it is not too early It is not too late I had to let you go and swallow my pain It caused me indigestion but little by little...is going away. Jessica

TUMS does the trick for me. Seriously though, this one has feels, though I'd prefer to skip the zombie thingy. Never had a taste for brains
