twenty two

Claudia

I realized I was broken…

When I saw how fast everything was moving.

How people find what they need

How they live.

 

They live.

They laugh, they cry, they risk, they see.

And I sit.

I sit and I watch them

Like an observer, a writer watching his book characters come to life

While he himself sits in a small, locked room.

 

If only he opened the door and saw

That not only his books teem with life

But that life surrounds him

Only if he opened the door

 

…I was 22
