It was like all of the sudden everything fell apart.
I'm not even sure how it happened.
Maybe there was some natural disaster that I can't recall.
One minute, I was happy, and the next, I was alone.
Whatever imploded must have sent me flying.
Made me hit my head.
Because everything is fuzzy and all of me hurts.
I feel like I should be feeling something.
Something other than confusion.
But I don't.
Whoever I was before, I don't remember.
I don't want to remember.
Because on this side of disaster, things don't look so bad.
And maybe over here I'm not all alone after all.
Over here I feel safe.
Here, bright eyes look after me.
And smiles greet me.
And the world seems to care that I exist.
A space for me to empty my brain of all the poems, letters, and half-finished stories that swirl around in my head all day.
