From Above

When does it all become too much?

When the tears flow out of your eyes like water flows through a river?

Or when the pain becomes so intense you actually feel your senses numbing?

Nobody really knows when the emotions become abundant, they just do.

You are removed from your own body, body and soul separate.

You look down from above, longing over the body that was once yours.

Knowing that you are no longer a part of it.

Desperately searching for a way back in.

But it is too late.

Too late because you abandoned whom you truly were.

Became a person you never wanted to be.

You used to be happy.

Overcome with emotion.

Serotonin pumped through your neurons as naturally as blood pumped through your veins.

It was part of you, a vital part you needed to stay alive.

You left it behind.

Neglected your own happiness.

Suffered for nothing.

Now it is all over.

Is that what you wanted?

Looking down from above, you long over a body that you used to call your own.
