You can’t put it back in the box

 

She loved her morning runs.   They were peaceful yet invigorating. She could zone out and be extremely focused as well.  That was partly why she ended up moving all the way out here; so far away from it all.

 

She also came out here because she wanted to escape and leave behind the turmoil she had caused.   She hadn’t meant to.   It just sort of happened and she didn’t stop it. But she wanted out from it all.

Even though it was her fault. And even though you can’t put it back, she was going to fight. Cause maybe, just maybe, there was a way….
