"If you are going through Hell, keep going." -Winston Churchill


Please don't

Ignore me again.

I hate talking

Outside of my head

But I need to talk to someone now.

Why are you ignoring him?

He is the elephant in the room.

We all care,

So much,

But we can't discuss it.

I don't want him to be the elephant,

But he will not cease,

Because no one will listen.
