The spirit of time

In a time when everyone has a voice, why does it feel that I have lost mine?

And now, I live this lethargic yet vivid nightmare where I have to pretend I am a grown up. 

Trapped in a race I know nothing about except for the fact that stopping is not an option.

But what are really my options?

I know for a fact that I am not a great writer (not even a good one) and perhaps I will never be. Everything that was on my mind was once pestering someone else's.

In a way, it is comforting to know that you are not alone and yet it is frightening that nothing changed. Life goes in circles and so do we.

Years go by and we are questioning this world less and less, losing ourselves more and more to the routine that keeps us sane. 

And when the day is over, the town is gone to sleep, when all of the tasks are left behind and the silence breaks in like a tsunami, all you have to do is stay strong, for a reason. 

A reason you have yet to find. 

But sometimes, when you are lucky enough, the reason finds you all by itself. 

And you share a life together, and the world stops being such a scary place even though the silence keeps coming back like the ocean tides.
