"Huh?" I turn around to see a boy, standing there.

"Deep shit," he points to my sort-of poem. "Why'd you write it?" He sits down next to me.

Staring at him, i reply unsurely. "Because no one knows how i'm feeling. No one cares. I'm suffocated. I have been for a long time now," i mumble loud enough for only the two of us to hear.

"Suffocated? What do you mean?" He asks.

Taking a gulp, i answer. "Suffocated it a substitute for dead. If you have been suffocated, you are dead. You die. I feel suffocated, therefore i feel like i'm dead. I feel like i'm just and empty vessel carrying no purpose or meaning," i ramble, not even bothering to cry as there would be no comfort and only looks of judgement. "Great now I'm telling a complete stranger my sap story."

"Everyone's put on this planet for a reason. You need to find yours," he says casually as if it was no big deal that he was being a deep little motherfucker. "If it makes you feel better, my name's Matt," he fold his arms over his chest.

"Yeah, i know," i roll my eyes. "Popular guy. Big whoop," i say through gritted teeth.
