I SAT DOWN BESIDE YOU (E A D G B E)

I only just realised I won’t get to decide my history. They’re going to take it from me.

I only just woke up. Every day I have to remember how to act like a functioning member of our dysfunctional society.

I only just found you. Cross-legged on the sand. The tide was rising, the sun was setting. It looked like the ocean was about to swallow.

So I sat down beside you.
