That was a good game, a good talk; i'll talk to you tomorrow

I shut off my devices and exhale gently, smiling warmly

I feel so light, like a feather, so steady, like a well written letter

Lay down into the covers and close my eyes


Where did you go?

Where did everyone go?

Why am I all alone now?

What did I do wrong?

Was it something I said?

Were you never here at all?

Did I make a mistake?

Did I try too hard?

Where are you today?

Will I ever see you again?

If I did, would you recognize me?

Would you run to me and start over again?

Tell me, where am I?

Was I born in the wrong body?

What is this feeling overcoming me?

What are these noises I've been hearing?

And why do I still see your face when I close my eyes?

Were we ever really friends?

Was it all a lie?

Am I worth anything at all?


One day I woke up and everything was gone.
