2:24 a.m.

I wish to be all the things I am not
and there is something about being anything other than myself
that feels so familiar and it feels so beautiful
to not have to worry about this skin
I have worn in for too many years like an old fragile chair
ready to retire, ready to be replaced
but the time quota does not end
for another 50, 60, 70 years
and I am not sure if


this is the life I want to complete
