''Hi Jess!Hi Lily!Hi Sa-'' and like that she places me on the table,out on her quest to welcome the barrage of people here to watch our performance.HER performance more like.When was the last time she acknowledged me?I...I don't know maybe it's because I know whats soon to come.
Before I could have another existential crisis, (I believe they are called that,I heard a guy who is apparently not on fire say it,so don't quote me)I get feel a sudden blanket of warmth cover me. It was show time.
line after line SHE got praised for the art,never taking into account MY hard work.As she drew that sickening feeling seeped into every part of me, small parts of me being left across the paper as she choreographed my dance,I almost forgot but that sinking feeling returned. I couldn't escape it now.I was running out.
I've seen it before,countless hauls of worthy supplies.My friends.Running out never to be seen again.Replaced like nothing.That ungrateful monster. Didn't she care?I hear her wistfully ask if the queen was lurking,nostalgically reminiscing on streams past.I was enraged and tried to shriek as loud as I could.I tried to shed a tear.But I couldn't .I'm just a pencil.
Then it hit me.it was me. I was the ungrateful monster!I had been so consumed by inescapable fate that I forgot all the happy memories we've had.All the times I've made her smile with my sketches,THAT should be what I focus on, not a silly thing like jealousy.
I let my thoughts simmer and fade into peace as I feel the blanket of warmth around me.But hey i'm just a pencil,A CRUMBERLAND PENCIL.thanks for reading.
oh wow I can't believe I just wrote that.
