I'm sad.
I want to go and see Nay... laugh and cry and just be. I really shouldn't have eaten my veggies when I was little.... mom was right, you will grow up. And sometimes I still feel like a scared little girl hiding in the closet watching the rest of the world living safe from my little crack in the door. Sometimes I want my mommy to come in and rub my back and make everything better.
Something is missing and I dont know what it is. But I'm not happy and I just want to smile..
scarcely moved from the spot Ive been sitting in, for going on 8 hours now ...
once, I was sitting here contemplating the sounds
now, I contemplate the lack there of
when the music stops playing
my mind stops reeling
or maybe it reels on so quickly that I cant interpret a single thought
I am as still
as I ought to be
in times like these
I peer down the alley way
a man half buried in our dumpster
frantically pulling at left-overs, long rotten, long sour
and I am long gone, long, long, long, gone
I see it every day
but now when he is so close
I am so affected
and I am so affected
that wouldnt you know, I go numb
and I feel nothing
I just exist
and the idea of existing ... where I swore I was hungry
and this man is devouring my left-overs ...
to exist in that ... would kill me
if this disassociation hadnt already done so
someone is laying on their horn outside my window
and yet, I am able to muffle it
and no, Ive never an idea of how or why
I dont laugh or cry
when just last night
was I not, but a child again?
carrying on and on about departure
carrying on and on about that insatiable hunger within
and you were right to say we will change with the mornings
and you were right that impermanence suits life best
and I was right to hold on so gravely
because with morning Id take all that love you gave me
and keep myself alive out here.
