I like to dive into books or be submerged into movies. It distracts me from life. From the overwhelming thoughts and feelings. From all the things I have to think about and do. It's like an escape pod, floating away for a while. Until it stops. And life catches up, rushing back with all of its speed and superiority. And I am caught again. Caught in the cycle of routine. The cycle of life. Being pushed forward to my fullest. With no option to drop out. My only escape is to plummet into another universe, another life. Maybe just for a while. But a while enough to feel the difference.
