def: not adjusting adequately or appropriately to the environment or situation.

Blocked nose. Full box. Grab a tissue.

Your head is low bowing to your chin, shoulders are heavy as if being weighed by heavy luggage, oh honey whatever is the issue?

Tissue, Clenched jaw, Blurry visions.

Aw sweetie, please don't tell me that the time has come for the arrival of that season.

Tissue, Glittering cheeks, Trembling fingers.

H-hey, it's been a while since your lips moved the other direction, please smile, it's been ages.

Tissue, Quivering lips, Choked breathes.

This is what happens when you keep your mouth shut, you should've stopped them before they took your happiness away, who were the thieves?

Empty box, Clenched fists, Vision goes darker.

Please. You're scaring me now, even an eagle uses the negative energy of a storm to fly higher.

Slow heartbeat, Slack touch, Quiet.

No, no. Just because we weren't born to make it alive doesn't mean we don't give it a try.

Honey?

...

Hon.

Exhales, Inhales, Repeat.
