all by myself.



Yesterday I grabbed my milk
and felt how nice it was not being watched.

Being alone.

No eyes boring into the back of my head.
No words flying at me-irrelevant.
Pressure only from myself, to choose a cereal.

Being alone,
Especially in a new apartment,
Helps me process life,
Because there are no eyesboringwordsflying.
And my mind can just stop.

Sometimes being alone for an hour
Is all I need.

Bod I don't know if I love stocking you quite as much as stalking you. But either way I'm doing both. Don't be a strrranngerrr!
