I think i may be falling in love with people all too easily I see their faces and their clothes but i know there is so much more I make up the stories of strangers who pass me I imagine their heartbreak, i can taste the sadness I know the pain that they feel carrying their dead around with them everywhere they go so do I I carry you, I carry my memories they slouch around nosily behind me they will not leave some are small little moments which i sort chronologically some are wrapped neatly into small bundles some are fiercely independent and will not be wrapped we are all so similar, we all feel the same things we love we hurt we breathe we walk on how can we choose to close ourselves up when we are all the same on the inside
