thinking

you know how sometimes you'll be walking down the hall, or a street or some sort of path and you are about ready to turn that corner and just as you do you get sideswiped by someone or something. They didn't physically run into you or knock you down but it took your breathe away and scared the hell out of you. Got your pulse up and running so fast you'd think you just lept off a cliff. And then your heart rate slowly begins to go down and you sort of have a numb buzzing feeling in your head. The eye of the storm, I'd like to call it. In a split second you've passed each other and you're around the corner and on another path. Everything is in front of you, there are no more corners or surprises up ahead yet you still have that feeling in the pit of your stomach. You want to look over your shoulder but you know you're big enough, grown up enough that you should just keep going, keep looking foward, it was just a little thing. Ever feel that?
