they did not tell me i would feel like this. they did not tell me there would be days where getting out of bed would be a strenuous task. they did not tell me there would be times where the feeling of loneliness would embrace me so tightly, i would not be able to breathe. they did not tell me i would spend evenings alone in my room, clinging to the seat of my chair, sobbing endlessly. instead, they told me i would be happy. they told me life was a grand adventure, waiting to be explored. they told me it would be easy. they lied.
