The obvious is sometimes false, and the unexpected is sometimes true.

When you were young, your parents took you to the circus and you asked why the elephants didn’t run and smash their way through the crowd back to dry deserts.
“Well, that’s because they don’t want to leave anymore.”
You come home feeling fucked up from the same shit you do at work, and you see her in the living room, sitting on the couch while reading a book. She sees you enter the room and gives you a smile that says, “Welcome home, love.”
You remember those giant elephants with chains, and you think of not leaving anymore.
