Inspiration finds me sitting on a bench.
Lonely in the park gazing at the stars.
It takes a seat next to me and begins a tale of despair, hope and wonder.
He starts the tale in Mars, with the birth of a little alien whose future was set with a lot of obstacles that only the universe knew she could go through.
This little alien always managed to fit in. Even when she knew she didn't the others in her community were so caught up by her act that they didn't see it.
By the age of 8 she had already a mindset of a 15 year old. She matured way too quick. She felt some of her childhood slip through her fingers. But she had to worry about the safety of her siblings.
By the age of 10 she had gone through some serious shit. Shit that no "kid" should have ever go through. By this time her family had already moved to a planet called Earth.
She thought things could be different but the earthlings only made it harder. They expected her to care for useless things and people even when they didn't. They expected her to show compassion, to morn, to cry when others do. But she couldn't, so people looked at her as if she were psychotic... And yet she was just a little different.
She never had trouble saying what she thought and disrespecting when she was being disrespected. Respect is key for her and if she isn't being respected don't expect her to respect.
She hated lies and liars even more. Why spend time lying when you can simply save time and energy by getting to the point?
She was a strong, different and independent alien with a kind and loving heart but also a ruthless and very cold heart.
She never gave up on herself even with the things she's seen and gone through.
I find my self being drifted from my thoughts about this alien when my phone flashes with a message from inspiration saying "bye".
Suddenly the world stops momentarily and I begin to wonder if my inspiration is really just my subconscious talking about myself.
