when the world leaves me behind

my head falls, quickly my hands catch it, my fingers then run through my wet hair. i continue to let my head fall slowly, gliding really, through my hands. At that moment i am allowed to think, truly with my whole mind. I dont worrie about what i look like or if any one else is in the room. I close my stealy blue eyes and mentally reflect on every thing around me. In that instant the world forgets about me and leaves me to do the things i need to do. No one trys to shake me and pull me on, no one offers to help me. I think about things peacefully and completely. I realize where i am, what i am, what is happening and why. I straighten out my emotions and pull my head the rest of the way threw my fingers. I slowly lift my eyes open and take a deep breath, now im ready to face the world. Now i can look into every set of eyes with bold confidence. I will take special notice to other peoples words, then store them in my mind to be reviewed for the next time the world leaves me behind.
