This overwhelming feeling.
I just want to let it all out. But I don’t know what to do first. I have tremendous urge to scream and burst into tears simultaneously.
But I do neither. I hold it in.
19 years have passed me by. Soon to be 20.
And I still don’t feel comfortable in my own skin. I feel as though I’m constantly wondering. A vagabond in my own right.
I should go on the lamb. It would make such better stories.
To keep myself together, I clutch this little journal I once kept. Though the pages seemed to have been forgotten, I still carry it with me. In case I have this sudden urge to write something of such dire importance that it needs to be addressed.
But I never carry a fucking pen.
Yet still, I’m clutching onto this notebook, because it seems to be all that’s keeping me.
I used to go on drives to clear my head. I would travel around the area, just seeing what there is to see. Usually after about an hour or so I would head back, with things set into a bit more perspective than before.
Now it seems as though I could drive forever. And I’ve often considered it. See where life takes me. Disappear.
Go on the lamb.
But I always end up back here. To my home. At least the place I call home. The place I feel more at home at than any other. Its always here. But not always so welcoming.
Home is what you make it.
Life is what you make of it.
