I have ____
an airport.
bags packed, in limbo.
tripped going up the stairs last night, and my face is black and blue, my knees are bloody.
a delayed flight.
a few days to storm the best option. I’m not running, but trying on distance.
such good friends, as close as family. I stand by making up your own family, even if your blood is the best you could ask for. there is never too much family.
to sleep for a few days straight.
most of all, got to stop drinking. I can’t call you Babe anymore, Babe, but I promise to be better. i never want to ask if Alcohol killed my future with anyone ever again.
to get on the plane. it’s time.
…arrived in California. My name is Alice, I fell from the sky, and everything is curious.
