Bones’ writing prompts for today’s 3 Word Wednesday are “Deny~Smile~Uncomfortable”.
This one came easily to me today since I had been mulling some thoughts in my mind the last couple of days and the prompts fit in nicely. Thanks, Bone.

some days i’m happy and
i don’t give a fuck and
it’s easy to deny
some days i’m bitchy and
i ooz venom and
i’m uncomfortable in my
bones, in my skin, in my rage
some days i’m dreamy and peaceful
then i see you in my mind’s eye the
way it used to be and
i smile
and no matter how unconcerned
i feel on the happy days
or how venomous i feel on the bitchy days, i still
end up wanting when i think of you
on the peaceful days

That was sweet and sad at the same time. I think most of us – or at least me – can relate to this a great deal.

You detail the ups and downs and the changing screen of emtions. The narrator takes a philosophical tone, accepting the quickly changing emotional landscape. Who couldn’t relate to this humanity?
