Grassy

And I thought about
all those reoccurring patterns
that I always think about,

And how I fell into the pattern
too smooth this time.
My chest tightened
and the air around me
seemed to suck in
and suddenly
I was shocked.
And choking
on my own thought
on my own actions
on my own choices.

Why did I make them
the way I did.
Without considering
every
possible
outcome
first.
