The Safest Thing

I don't know what's happening.
I think I'm going crazy.
I'm not motivated to do anything.
Maybe I'm just getting old and lazy.
Cherished memories of mine I can not reminisce.
Most loved ones of mine within those memories are now all gone and forever missed.
They who still survive who bring a sparkle to my eye will one day leave me crushed too.
so I'll just live my life alone at home and throw away my phone. 
It's the safest thing for me to do.

Safe makes someone stay behind their fears. Brave makes someone find their way to be free and probably find peace. Thought provoking write, that we can all relate to. Thanks for sharing. Caroline.

Like Michael said below, "Your never alone" my Forever Friend. God and those gone before you are with you in spirit. I believe that Love is more powerful than any emotion there is, and lasts, transcends time and worlds.! Peace and love to your good and gentle spirit. Love, Audrey
