I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on 

On the concrete

Falling from Cloud Nine

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

Not losing any sleep

Picked up every piece

And landed on my feet

Need nothing to complete myself, no

Thunder rumbling

Castles crumbling

I am trying to hold on

God knows that I tried

Seeing the bright side

But I'm not blind anymore

I'm Wide Awake.

This song actually speaks to me because I had to come off a drug that actually was killing my mind/attitude/life. My psychiatrist recommended it to me, and needless to say I'm never going back to that quack. Now, I never recommended going cold turkey off a medication like that. But, I am one to do it myself. Plus I have a whole family of medical personnel so I've heard stuff and I know how to treat myself. At first it was just annoying, I"d want to eat constantly, then came the insomnia, the wanting of just something... pain that couldn't be relieved, itching, paranoia, depression, crying, breakdowns for no reason, then came the calm after two weeks. That is when I actually knew that I didn't need any more of those meds. That I control how I feel. Not some pill. Now, some people actually do need assistance with their own problems so I don't promote going off your meds until you are certain this isn't working for you. That is why Wide Awake is something that speaks to me personally. For me, my Cloud 9 was medical pill popping while ignoring the problem. 

Anyways, to the post today! I know that was deep but I felt like it needed to be said considering the song I am labeling the post of. First and foremost is the skirt that I am wearing which of course is hot off of the rack at Petry Model! My readers can check out this skirt that comes in multiple colors (and the belt can change colors as well!) at the main store of Petry Model or on their Facebook! Then of course is the pose that I am using which of course has to be Something New with their exclusive event pose which is only at the Thrift Shop (Opens May 27th)! Now, side story... my husbands boss has one of these in RL and it cracks me up because my best friend uses it as a "chariot" for his rolling desk chair. LOL. Last but not least I can't forget Pervette with the tattoo that I am wearing! My readers can pick up this tattoo at the main store of Pervette <3 Happy Shopping <3
