I long for the clouds, the heavy clouds which carry my worries and meddle them with the raindrops which dirt my face.

I long for the grass, the untamed grass which caresses my scars and blows in my ear that someday, I'll join it in the ground.

I long for the day, the forsaken day I'll be one voice and the rest of them will find vacancy in another body.

Because I'm disassembled and disheveled, bouncing in the four walls that keep me from reaching for the clouds, the grass and time, the time which has seized existing since the moment I first breathed.
