I'm just SO TIRED OF MOVING! I could barely bring myself to pack up my toothbrush it has been sitting in the same orange mug for months now and I need to move it? my shampoo is now zipped away in a plastic baggy and my hair ties strangle my brush all that remains are my pyjamas and tomorrow's clothes. How quickly it all can change one day I was settling in, welcomed by a hug and one day I was only, eating dinner with you, made vegetarian for me and one day I was alone at home and it was all okay and now I need to move? I hope you wish I could stay as much as I want to I hope you think about me at dinner where there is no plate or cup I hope when you walk past my door you get a bittersweet smile and you think about me for a few seconds of time I now I will think about you each time they do something slightly off a little too different than you would and I WANT TO GO HOME I've been gone for far too long (!) but that would mean I need to PACK IT ALL UP and GET ON A PLANE and it's just a little while longer hold on sweetie, hold on

The Messiah in Miss Hart’s class, Has torn his hands from the pins that stuck into him with Doubt at success, Doubt in the light. Now, he wonders the desert, to live out his life. You’re a small percent But you’re not different So many ideas, such a creative spark. But you don’t write a word. though your brain screams a speech. You could be in a far off land. Just lift the pen in your hand. But your body is a tide pulled by the moon,Hidden in the sky that’s Grey enough to ignore. Grey enough to anger, Grey enough to cloud a view. Why am I sat here?, I have a million things to do? Chop mushrooms in the kitchen, Mix in the soup Eat that mushroom in the dark, To make your eyes droop. Cut weeds in the garden, To clear the flower bed, Spread weeds at the party, To stop feeling dead. You want to escape, so you clasp a headphone to your ear, But your fantasy should be here, As you have no work for a year, You have no purpose for a year.
