Then I Blinked

I blinked. 

I was happy with life. It had its ups and downs and I had almost everything for me going. Things couldn’t get better.

Then I blinked.

I lost important people and I realized I was going to lose more. Time was wasting, and I wasn’t so happy anymore.... I felt alone and knew I was going to lose the people I had.

Then I blinked. 

Things were getting slightly better. Although I lost them.... I found tranquility in another and moved on. Things around me changed. My home, my friends and my family. A new start can be good.. Right?

Then I blinked.

Things looked amazing. With a bit more time, things could go so right. I could have it all.... All I need is things to stay constant... Then maybe I will have it made.

Then I blinked.

It was all gone. Everything. Gone. Feelings. People. Life.... And now I am forced to start all over again. The funny thing? None of it was my fault. Why do these things happen?

Then I blinked.

And things were getting better. I found where I belong for the time being. I am not happy, but now a days... who is? I am living and I still have time to change everything.... What am I scared of? 

When will I blink next....

we're all on the same roller coaster but some of us take the ride a little harder than others.

I love it. Things that are taken away so slowly seem to be gone so quickly when you look back on it. Like a blink of the eye.
