I don't know what I'm doing.

I'm just so scared.

Scared of being alone again.

I really don't want to be alone again.

It feels like, you're trapped in a room.

A regular room.

Normal.

But you're waiting.

And waiting.

And waiting.

But nobody comes in the room.

And you can't leave.

Every time you touch the handle people start screaming at you.

"STOP" "THEY'RE GOING TO LEAVE YOU AGAIN" "YOUR OWN DAD DIDN'T WANT YOU WHY WOULD ANYONE ELSE" "please don't talk to anyone anymore."

Suddenly you're more scared than before.

You don't want to leave.

You'll just wait.

And wait.

And wait.

Maybe someone will come through the door one day.

Maybe they're alone in their room too.

Just as scared as you.

You don't feel as alone anymore.

You're still alone.

But you're lonely together.

Maybe they'll visit your room one day.

Maybe you'll visit theirs.
