Alone & (Fill-In-The-Blank)

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)



Alone & confused is how I feel when I walk out my house & see people & animals walk two & fro. I would like some company, but I'd rather be a homebody.

Alone & dazed is how I feel when I try to look out the window, but all I can see is a dusty screen that's impossible to clean. How embarrassing?

Alone & stuck is how I feel when I stand at the door to sit outside or take a walk, but I run to my alcove & cry.
It's so sad to feel alone.
