How did I get over it? I did not. I got up one morning and I did things. I did one thing after the next for months – Until the doing of things consumed me.
How did I get over it? I did not. I laid in my bed watching the ceiling. And watching the ceiling, I fell asleep. I slept until the sun stole my slumber.
How did I get over it? I did not. I flirted with suicide in the dark. I read every book my poor eyes could read – Until "dark" thoughts and stories consumed me.
How did I get over it? I did not. Because there was no "it" to get over.
