I guess things could be worse.

maybe if i didn't think so much-

things would be better.

~ overthinker

You had a whole chapter in my book

and i was only a page in yours.

Passer by

As long as i know-

that those who don't stay find whatever it is they're looking for

I am contemptuous of staying behind.

Contempt

—---

I want a wine out of coffee mugs -

Candle lit game nights, the grandparents from charlie and the chocolate factory winters

thrifted furniture, patchwork blinds

creaky floor boards, noisy stairs

no air conditioning

sort of uni life.

A wish

—----

I am content with being a page, a paragraph, a sentence in your story.

even though you could have filled a whole book in mine.
