i am here to write.
something,
not much always but
it sometimes feels like enough.
it is an escape
take that metaphorically
but i literally mean it literally
i sit down, close my eyes, breathe.
no one hears me,
no one sees me,
but i am happy like that.
well...
see?
an escape. because at least here something's seen and/or heard
because here, my words have meaning
and i can escape, while i'm at it.
so i keep it as a win-win.
it is good enough.
it (has to be) good enough.
wow.
how else do i say it,
i want someone else here to join me
come hide here,
escape because there's no(one)where else
to be,
to go,
to hear you
to see you
i hear you
i see you
i feel it all
and i'm here too
i'm here for you
let's send virtual hugs
and imagine ourselves together
let's type rhyming words
and pretend that we're near
stay close enough to tread in open wounds
but far enough to know
that we'll never meet
see, or touch
but at least we're friends
and not alone.
