Caught between two distinctly different worlds I drown in my thoughts I finally look up and his mouth is moving But I can't hear Everyone speaks the language But I don't understand it I move through the minutes Because what else would I do? My new life feels like a constant countdown I find myself at times forgetting though New people hold my hand like an old friend And offer their bed willingly for little sleep I reach out But quickly retract Where am I anyways?
