my mind is at the boarder of two places at once. one half twists and writhes like smoke in a glass, the other is still and rigid and heavy. i walk alone under a canopy of cornstalks smelling my childhood, bewildered by the way i've changed. it feels as though i've been shifted to the left, just a few inches. nothing looks the same even though it's just like i remember it. all i seem to do is wish for things the way they were. i can't remember how to love anything other than dreams and faux realities. i can never have my only desire as long as i keep killing my own ambition. i can't figure out how to feel anymore, still just learning how to hide from the connection.
