Means to an end

This shit has been like a car crash.

You see it coming

You hope it doesnt happen.

You become captivated then engulfed.

and in the aftermath you wonder why you didnt stop,
you recall all the red flags that said stop,
remember all the precautions you didnt take.

regret.
accept.
die.

And then breathe.

yeah thats about where I am right now.
