I’m selfish.
I must be, to think I deserve a place to live while other more valuable lives are left homeless
If I had one to give I would try I’d like to think but I
Don’t know.
I’ve never had one.
I know it’s not a place it’s a person but it hasn’t changed
Twenty odd years I still break down to
I want to go home
But nobody’s listening.
I guess that means I’m listening.
Listening to myself on repeat.
I want a home
But if I don’t have one I don’t deserve one which means someone else out there deserved it more than me
And it’s my fault anyways
I got myself here
Dug myself a hole and then cried when it got too deep to climb out of
They handed me shovels rather than ladders.
It must be what I deserve. Just part of the punishment
After all even that
I send out messages,
I can’t even get in the door to compete with the hundreds of others
Who could have stayed where they were but came here instead
I want to run but where to and with what and how do I just leave all this stuff and who would have to deal with it so
I can see what I’ll have to do
I’m planning for when it drops,
The truth.
When I realise I’m being forced to do what I didn’t want to do but with far worse circumstances and I don’t know why
But it seems like so be it and so that means I have to figure out how to get all this stuff
I shouldn’t feel sad about the idea of throwing it all out, but I am,
Selfish.
But I can’t carry even a backpack on my back,
So this is going to be a really fun exercise in futility.
I know I can’t carry enough to keep me alive.
So at least I know I won’t be around very long to see
What happens after this
Because I know what happens to me.
That first pretense
It’s coming to get me.
