Cabin Fever
by Christel Crewsdays in bed
away from work
has left me
TIME
and i remember
now why i
stay so busy
because
i overthink
everything and
question, worry, fear
YOU
second guessing me
reading into the
silences that
SCARE
me because i
do not know
where you are with
ME

Author's Note: ok, so i've been sick in bed over the last 3 days and when i can't sleep, i worry, and when i can't worry anymore, i second guess and its a horrible cycle i've found myself in lately.. and this isn't my best of pieces but its all i could come up with while i'm feeling so crumby..

| Posted by Gabriel Ricard on 12/15/06 at 03:22 PM I really like the back-and-forth nature of this thing. It's really nicely handled. |
| Posted by Dave Fitzgerald on 12/15/06 at 08:03 PM The stop start rhythm combined with the embedded line really does make this a strong, powerful piece. Get well soon. |
| Posted by Tim D Livingston on 12/16/06 at 05:39 AM Oh yeah, being sick and all the time alone can drive you crazy. But I pray that God will make it into a good thing- that He will calm your mind and heart. There's no need to worry about anything when you hide beneath His wings. |
| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 12/17/06 at 09:39 PM I love the imbedded message, and yes, time does scare me (sometimes) when I have too much of the unstructured kind. Excellent sentiments because in free time, our minds do wander to all kinds of things that aren't there when we fill our lives with activities of any kind (like spending money LOL!) Get well soon Christel.
