Cowardess

there i was.  no longer numb to my emotions and that ongoing, ever so slight ache in my stomach that hasnt left for at least a week.  the water works kicked on as i vocalized my thoughts and faced the truth with some helpful advice.  and then, i was offered an out.  and so, i made a run for it.  like a coward.  only telling one person so that no one would fear i had been abducted.  here i come weekend of emotional recovery, perspective, and people of an age other than my own.
