I just wanted to tell you

That I hate you

 

My feet stand, planted solid on the ground

Weight weighing me down

As I breathe in, exhale

The air around me becomes my being

I pass by store windows, trying to see in

Faces buried in books

Back allies filled with cooks

Smoking long cigarettes on their breaks

From 20 hour days

Standing up, a constant haze

I see a girl with long brown hair

Freckles on her face, ribbon around her waist

I never never ever imagined it this way

That was a lie, I read it in my cards

I should have just stayed honest or stayed away

But here I am, out again

Alone in the world
