the thought that makes my heart stop by Jared Fladelandi fear the mediocre.
i think that sometimes I myself suffer from being stuck in the middle.
this thought brings a cloud of water over my eyes.
i want to see beyond what is around me.
i know it's there. Waiting for me to reach beyond the physical.
and grasp it.
until then, i'm nothing but a shot in the dark.
