Timeless

Do you ever get lonely? No, I do not mean the type of loneliness where you see a photo of your friends hanging out on social media and you wish you were with them but instead you are at some family reunion suffering through the same story you have heard your uncle tell over and over again. I am speaking of the loneliness that is crippling. The kind that actually leaves the feeling of physical pain in your chest as you slowly calm your breaths while you lay in bed late at night. The kind that you can only feel after crying for hours on end, only surrounded by the darkness in your room at one in the morning.

It was ironic really, as I fall to my knees on the pavement outside of the only home I have known. I was scared, which made me laugh. I was shivering like some poor child left outside during a terrible snow storm. Blood is dripping from my palms as I smash my hands against sidewalk and let out a wail. Maybe i was always like this; the sky was always meant to cave in above me and I was always destined for sadness. Designed to be alone.

The police sirens blare down the street, getting closer by the second. I sit here like some dumb dog, waiting for his owner to give him some command. I almost felt like praying, maybe by the grace of God above I would be saved. Was it possible that he would come back for me? Maybe I would turn around and there he would be standing, beckoning me to follow him into the woods to escape the fate that has now been layed out before me; but things like that just don't happen in real life, do they?
