Is…

Abigail Prieto 1998

I'd like to believe life is not unfair.... because I cannot bare to look everywhere and find nothing but rushing air...

I'd like to believe life is not unfair...

Desolate primate looking away...

I'd like to believe life  is not unfair...

I found you here profound and disavowed..
Blinding... fantasizing of smiling..

I'd like to believe life is not unfair...

Finally lifelessly happily...

I'd like to believe life is not unfair...

Found solid ground but no way to expound this heavily endowed memory...

I'd like to believe life is not unfair but cruel....
