You Shall Not Pass

The saying “This too shall pass” doesn’t work for me. It has dug a hole in my heart and dwelled. Storms that have come and gone wash away the day’s pain, but never cleanse the soul. It sits beneath the surface. Remaining unaffected by the violent winds and torrential rains. It’s too deep. Too true. For anything to ever feel the same. Only you.
