Silent

Silent

blank

empty

no new messages

no bolded titles waiting to be opened

waiting to be read

nothing to see

nothing to do

bored

hollow

quiet.

Everything has been explored

nothing new to look forward to

another what, eleven weeks?

Until I see half of my friends again

but then again, there are weekly meet-ups

but I never make it

because I never can get there

because I don't know

I'm tired

I'm bored

I have nothing to do

and I am blank

empty

silent.

  • Exploring

    The toy falls 

    faster 

    faster 

    closer to the ground 

    its paws reaching out

    it lands on the grass with a light thud

    it hides there

    waiting

    quietly.

  • Everything

    I have the chance to do anything

    not quite everything

    but many things

    and I don't know what I want to do.

    I could be a writer

    or start my own company

    or be an Einstein-level mathematician

  • Stereotypes

    I hate stereotypes

    and the heavy, constant smell of perfume as I walk by my classmates wearing too much lip gloss

    but I like dressing myself up

    and I do care about my appearance
