Have You Ever..

Have you ever had so much to say that your mouth closed up tight, struggling to harness the nuclear force coalescing within your words?

Have you ever has so many thoughts churning inside that you didn't dare let them escape, in case they blew you wide open?

Have you ever been so angry that you couldn't look in the mirror for fear of finding the face of evil glaring back at you?

Have you ever tried to quit a bad habit, one that has come to define you? To cease using a substance that you not only need but enjoy? Its going to kill you, but hey, you're going to die someday anyway. Why not die satisfied? Why not die sooner, with fewer regrets, than later?
