When I retire to my bed, the lights remain on.
\nEvery night, I look up at the moon, thinking about how it seems like a small pool into which I may fall. I recall school trips and slices of chilled meats, as well as money returns and new lingo.<\/p>\n
I meticulously prepare 500 meals in advance, seeking preparedness and freshness in my life.i\u00a0long for new shoes, ones that can withstand wetness and leave a lasting impression.
\nI hope to have a curriculum vitae that garners plaudits and a salary that equates to thunderstorms.
\nI’d like to believe that some folks enjoy lives as grand as palaces, where bills are paid on time and bird sightings bring them delight.<\/p>\n
During my spare time, I accumulate coupons and keep them in my wallet, only to forget to redeem them, a constant cause of anxiety that gnaws at me day after day.
\nI can feel my heart vibrating within me when I close my eyes.<\/p>\n
