I must present myself as together in the face of the vultures who watch and wait for me to stumble.
Walk away, behind my back, do they mumble.

I am surrounded by people, faces, family, and friends.
Yet I am alone with the voices whom real life contends.

I am told to open my eyes and realize who I am and who I'm not. I forget. I forgot.

I love my family or at least I think I do, but in my dreams I hurt them, I hurt too.

The voices whisper to me and what they say does appeal. When I touch my son all I feel is surreal.

Things are changing, rearranging, causing me to see a new sight. I must leave, live on, make new memories this night.

This read was based on the ins and outs of Stacy's life and how and why the things in her life were changing. It took quite a while for me to get a grasp on what was happening. Once I did, I was able to settle back and enjoy the story this author wanted to express. I think I was expecting an apocalyptic tale with blood and guts, but I got more of a self-exploration read.
I read. I liked. It was different.
