What is Now?
August 23, 2004
I know pain. But that is not now.

My knees have crumbled like two towers beneath my weight. I have fallen. I have forgotten how to get up. But that is not now.

I have lost faith in humanity. I have given up on what I believe in. I have seen a loved one die and so so badly not wanted her to go. My heart has broken.

I have placed my own life on the scales, weighed against the word "why". Life has come up short.

I have been misunderstood. I have been a mistake. I have cursed the sunrise and feared the Dark.

I have been sick, I have been injured, I have been insane, I have hurt.

I know pain.

And that is how I know, that is definately not now.
