-The Awakening
I think too much. I wonder to much about whether or not I'm worthy. I worry about getting fat. I miss deadlines. I sleep in. I forget people's names.
And then I assign roles and personalities to people. Sometimes I end up being right but not always. I become surpised. But I thought... No silly. weren't you? No. didn't you... No. supposed too? No
