Once again I find myself laying in bed and staring with empty eyes at my room. In my mind this is not my room, and I am not here. I view my surroundings as if they are a photo I hold in my hands. This isn't my life, but a glimpse into someone else's; I judge them for their mess and chaos. I admire them for their creativity . I judge the way they let their partner treat them in this space. I admire the compassion I see shining through despite that treatment. I am able to identify both my best-self and my worst-self While looking down at this snapshot of a strangers room with my bed

My Bed in a Strangers Room
Once again I find myself laying in bed and staring with empty eyes at my room. In my mind this is not my room, and I am not here. I view my surroundings as if they are a photo I hold in my hands. This isn't my life, but a glimpse into someone else's; I judge them for their mess and chaos. I admire them for their creativity . I judge the way they let their partner treat them in this space. I admire the compassion I see shining through despite that treatment. I am able to identify both my best-self and my worst-self While looking down at this snapshot of a strangers room with my bed
