Sure, you're quiet now but for how long?
How long can I keep you under my shaky thumb?
Sometimes I think of you when I've had a stressful day or feel the need to invade a drawer full of sugary snacks.
Your voice is still there but you're speaking very low, I can barely hear you. That's good.
It's been awhile and you're probably thinking I miss you about now, just as things in my life are about to get even more hectic.
You're thinking I'll come back or that your voice will be heard again but not this time. Not right now.
While the picture of my busy future comes into focus, I worry about being able to handle and juggle life without you.
I worry about not having what it takes to keep you at bay..it's exhausting just thinking about it.
But I must prepare myself to do battle with you again (someday) because you're never going to be gone...for good.
