I know what I want in life.
A simple one.
I never saw myself in this position.
I wanted the best for people.
I finally caught a whiff of power, a small taste of control.
Now I want more.
How do I get more power?
How can I be in more control?
Climb up the ladder, I shall.
That was only enough to satisfy my need for a little bit.
I need more. How can I be on top?
Making a lot of connections worked, but how can I use those connections to get further?
I've finally made it. I'm in total control. All the power is mine.
Suddenly, people are hating on me.
How can I manipulate the situation to be in control again?

On the heels of grief, pain bears down hard. On the heels of death, pain awakens the quiet place between the end of our own life and now. Feeling anything is like seeing a film and in black and white, slow motion, all sound turned off. Just watching. Gritting teeth, awkward smiles and bloody red eyes move around, scanning the others who are feeling something I don't want to feel, but I do. Escapism is all I have ever known. ~
