you avoid it at all costs,
you make yourself busy,
you do whatever it takes to not have to look at it in the face,
because if you do, then you acknowledge it.
you don't want to even give it a second of thought.
so how long can you keep this up?
how long can you act like it's all okay?
i guess until it either breaks or all comes crashing down.
i wonder which it'll be.
