i had such high hopes
so much anticipation
to do something great here
to become someone great here.
i'm in my old skin looking out my window in my little quilted bed. watching groups walk by.
i feel so alone, but i chose this didn't i? i chose solitude instead of going out and trying.
creating this world i never saw anyone in it for a while, and this person infected it, ran loose in my life and tore down my walls. but when i'm alone i love the time i have watching clouds and tracing concrete lines in my wall, basking in the sun without a so much on my mind. i might lose myself in my mind someday, sun tea in hand, endless novel in another. and i'm okay with it. waiting for the right people to come along, because here i don't fit.
i'm not sure why i thought i would in a tiny town of dying dreams and bridges. i want to leap off them and see where i land.
