Too Much
Rayen Storme

--

How is it that one moment, everything in the world seems okay?
And the next, the shards of reality are crumbling to ash?
It’s bloody ridiculous if you ask me.
I’m getting utterly sick of it.

Because either my life is tumbling downwards into a darkened abyss,
Or it is far more amazing than I can even imagine.
But I cannot handle these flashes back and forth.
Pick one and stay with it.
Please.
It’s killing me.

It’s killing me.
People have strength inside of themselves. Everyone can handle a certain amount of agony and emotional disbalance. The difference from person to person is the quantity.
Some can take it for their entire lives, never failing. Stoically they stand through hardships and despair, never budging. Others fall within a few hard hits sent by life.

But I believe that there is something that can destroy even the strongest of us.
Uncertainty.
Because no matter how strong you are, no matter how confidant and fortified you may be, going back and forth between polar extremes will wear you down.
One moment, it is you against the world, and the next, you are happy with life and couldn't be more content. And then it flashes back to being alone and suffering.
No imagine that, day by day. Week by week. Month by month. Perhaps even year by year.
I think it would break even the best of us.
Because whatever you may think, it'll kill you.
One moment, everything is okay, and the next, it is flying to pieces, and then everything seems okay, and then it crumbles yet again.
Over, and over, and over.
I think that would be the death of us.
I think that would be the death of me.
I think it is the death of me.

For, really think about it, it would wear you down. The strongest dam will give to erosion one day. Each one of us will simply last for a different amount of time.
I hope you never have to flash back and forth to the point of breaking.

I don't mean the simply day to day things here, just to clarify. This isn't, "Oh, we ran out of toilet paper. Oh, look, more toilet paper."
That is superficial happy/sad shifts.
I mean deep inside. The kind of feelings that just rip you apart.

Stay strong, dear Followers.

Cheers,
~Rayen
