Welcome Back

Mar 17, 2011 10:51


It has been WAY too long since I've written, but I did NaNoWriMo and that used up a lot of my focus, and I started drinking and partying a lot so I didn't have any time for writing. But I really want to get back to it. So, here it is, here you go, my first attempt at writing since. I'm a bit rusty, bear with me. These are all a little personal too. I'm sorry I've been gone.


 Falling in love with every man with long hair
Riding the subway looking for any friendly or familiar faces. 
But the only familiar face is your own reflection in the subway windows across from you which you barely even recognize.
This is you.
Hello. 
Welcome back.
Did you realize how sunken your once perky cheeks have gotten?
Did you realize that you have bags piled on top of them?
Did you realize that your mouth sticks out like a triangle in the third dimension?
Hello.
Welcome to the city.
Welcome to America
Ok, so you're a pretty good looking girl but you're nothing special
You don't look different.
So you're used to luring them in with your natural, trusting looks.
It won't get you anywhere here. 
Nothing but perseverance will get you anywhere here.
Don't expect magic
This is not the place for magic
You are far too gone from the pitiable little lost girl.

Hello.
You're ok with all of this aren't you? You just need a little reminding.
