I woke up like every other morning
but this time is different, I'm missing one specific thing, and this one specific thing-what is it?
I stepped outside for the first time in a month
the sun shined so bright it hurt my eyes.
It was very warm and I felt out of place;
wearing uggs, sweatpants, and a hoodie
I hate going outside.
It feels as if everyone is staring at me,
even though there are barely any people out here,
I can feel the stares of everyone around me.
I walked across the street hoping I brought enough money,
I searched the store frantically for the one thing I needed.
Repeatedly thinking to myself, "get this one thing and you're out."
I finally found it and thought "I hope I never have to do this ever again,"
then proceeded towards the line.
Maybe it wouldn't have been so hard to check out if I wasn't so nervous.
But again, this day was different.
It was the first time I went outside in a month.
