I am working. I am not fighting with anyone. I am not obsessively trying to get into a relationship.
I am working out, I am attempting to lose weight, I am paying my bills and getting more in touch with my family.
I meet new people everyday, and everyday I come closer to stabilizing the downward spiral I have been in for, let's face it, nearly 8 years.
Every day, I become less interested in what I have enjoyed for years.
Every day, I grow more distant from the people that I consider to be my closest friends.
Every day, another person I was keeping in touch with blows me off.
Every day, I recede into myself alittle more, because I hate being slighted.
Every day, I see things that I want and know they are out of reach.
My mother asked me last week if I was considering that overweight girls are women too.
My sister told me that she doesn't miss me any more because I'm not around.
I wondered why she was so happy I went to her wedding then?
Every day, the sun comes up, and I wonder if anyone really cares that I get up too.
Every day, I wake up alone.
Every day, I go to bed, alone.
Every day, I eat alone.
Every day is a little brighter.
Every day, there are more clouds.
The fucked up part is that sometimes I see the person who is supposed to be here with me.
I feel the comradery of the people who are supposed to be here, and sometimes I see her family.
But I have no idea who she is. This person who pulls all of these broken things together to make life bearable.
I've never met this person. I couldn't even draw or describe her. I wish I could.
But I do see her sometimes. Out of the corner of my eye. When I turn the corner.
Can I mourn a girl I've never met?
Bloody Hell.
