Tough Can(not) Be Beat

Some days, Tough just keeps its death grip on you and obstinately refuses to let go no matter how long you whine or how much you cry. Kinda makes you wonder if you should just give up altogether and give in to the sensations that follow. Milk it for what it's worth and come bouncing back with stronger bones.


So, swallow the poison you're served then look up and smile at the cracks you see in the ceiling above you. Stop to really take in the pain from invisible claws that dig into both sides of your neck as you close your eyes and give in to the constant pulsing – the throbbing – in your brain. Remember the feeling of your own breath catching in your throat and for once, enjoy the ache that seeps from your heart and into your arteries.


And when enough's enough,
look Tough in the face and tell it to take a hike
cos you're going to do what's good for you:

Sleep the day away.
