Near means far, close means distant
We roam with slim hope, living in coexistance.
They claim "History is happening, the past is being made!"
"You'll be able to tell this story someday!"
After Shirley Geok Lin-Lim's Learning to Love America
because I haven’t had anything solid in the last week
because my parents threaten to take my phone away
My thoughts swarm around me, chasing its prey
Foggy mind, hands twitching, heart pumping
New experiences are my worst fears
The unknown, the not knowing
She cant deal with her anxiety
she's always overthinking
It feels like air is being sucked out of her lungs,
except she's still breathing
She's always sweating on her hands and feet
