Time
Lit Up — April’s Prompt: Distraction
Past is like your mistress.
There are lots of good memories, nostalgia and happiness associated, but there is always enough buried there that if it gets out, it's gonna overshadow your present and ruin your future.
So you just stow it in a little corner of your heart.
Your present is like you driving a bike, for the very first time.
Constant nervousness about things going wrong all the time. Your excitement and happiness are short-lived.
Just a bend away from disaster and heartbreak.
Your future is like you committed a crime.
Whether you make it or not depends on your preparation(past) and how you executed it (present). But the outcome is not in your hands; there is so much at play.
When present is too much to take. We do what we do best.
We DISTRACT ourselves.
We either indulge with our mistress or we ponder upon committing the perfect crime.
