Some Days

Are Worse Than Others.

Some days are days that I want to let go of forever and leave behind me.  But it never quite works that way- never works as I have planned.

Those days stay with me for as long as I want to forget them.  They float around the back of my head, punctuating daily life with pain, misunderstanding, and self-loathing.  They push me around and whisper terrible things.

Those days stick.

And they wound.

And they just won't let go.

No matter what I do, no matter how many lengths to which I go- travel to Iceland?  Get another tattoo- hopefully one that will last? Starve?- those days stay with me.  And even that is not the right amount of emphasis- they HAUNT me.

Some days are like poltergeists.
