It's Independence Day.
Independent.
As with all the other holidays (and my birthday) since I moved, I'm on my own. Alone. Independent... though it didn't really bother me before today.
I sat outside on a fallen tree behind the apartment, looking out over the marsh and watched part of the fireworks display being shot over the harbor... The whole time I was out there all I wanted was for someone to be sitting on that tree in front of me, leaning back against my knees, my hands on their shoulders while the breeze picked up...
A phantom dream.
Tonight my heart breaks just a little.
