Make It.

Life is full of uncertainty. The uneasy feeling of not knowing what's around the corner. When the future is never promised and the past is there to haunt you. When being sure of yourself isn't a luxury you can afford. You're a moving target, and everyone is ready to shoot you down. And every silence is filled with the sound of what's going on inside your head. An unappreciated silence that you can't afford to appreciate. Where the future looks so hopeful, but you feel so hopeless. And your heart is in your socks and you can't concentrate or breathe in deep without feeling weak because everything is just too much even though it's nothing special. Nothing in particular. Because the things that might be able to glue you back together, those are the things you might not be able to get your hands on. Those things that you wish for at every 11:11, on every shooting star, and think about before you go to sleep. Those are the things that could bring you back to the surface. Back to reality. Back from that deep sea of thought that washes over you, when you're drowning. Drowning in thoughts and worries and feelings, too much. But that roll of the dice is worth so much. You have so much riding on these things, it's hard. You're never prepared for the disappointment that could come from it. But you can't help but expect the worst, and hope for the best. What is there to do that gets you what you want? Things could go so right, though. Things could be closer to perfect than ever. And you can't swallow your pride and walk away from that opportunity. So you walk out with open arms. Ready for anything. You know?

"I'm ready to be amazed."
