A friend

hey

I come to you as a last resort because they say lonely people, or people feeling alone, often come to you and you make them feel better. Don’t get me wrong, I also like you. I think you’re gorgeous, but I never know how to give you what I carry.

And you take so much. No? Has anyone ever took from you, helped you carry all the things people throw at you? Is this why you always push us out whenever we go in? I’m sorry that we’re so selfish, we keep expecting you to give us but we never give you anything in return. But see we’re so much alike. It’s just that you’re way prettier than me, and people like you so much more than they like me.

I’m sitting a few meters away from you because the closer I get to you the heavier the sun is and I hate the sun so I am sitting under a shade. But I’m still here, if you’d like to talk. Sometimes I’m a good listener whenever my head is not so much up my ass.

I can see an old bald man with a big belly that just took a dip, and right now he’s just walking close to you, with his hands behind on his back, looking at me because I look weird.

He just went back in. I think he didn’t have enough of you yet. I keep telling you you’re irresistible but you don’t believe me. I know you’re dirty and people say you make them sick sometimes. But we’re all a bit dirty from the inside, so it’s fine.

Hey, a black dog just sat next to me. So casually as if we’ve been best friends since 2001. Hey doggie, I hope you’re here just to relax. I hope you’re not sad or anything, and if you are it’s ok, that makes three of us, I guess.

The dog just looked at me and then put his head down and closed his eyes. I did that a few minutes ago too, but I couldn’t sleep, I hope you’re of a better luck!

The dog is as black as I am right now, at least because I am wearing black too. Maybe that’s why he chose me? Because I look like him. They always tell me I have puppy eyes, so I think he just decided that I’m his new friend, and I’m happy with that. Maybe that’s what I need to have in my life, a dog. They’re so loyal and loving, you don’t have to tell them when you’re not feeling well they just know, and they would never leave.

Did you send the dog? You sneaky little bastard. Trying to help me feel better. Now I understand why people like you so much. You’re so caring. Thank you for this. You made me stop crying.

I think I would never live anywhere near you, so you’re not always right in front of my eyes and so I don’t get used to you. I would always leave you as my last resort, because I know you carry so much and I wouldn’t want to overburden you.

The dog just left, and the old man just put on his shirt and is also started walking away. The bugs are fying around me more annoyingly, and I just killed an ant on my hand, and the sun is getting closer to me and another dog is barking at another dog. I just stopped my music and I can hear you, but not very clearly because the MK is wizzing. Is this your way to tell me I need to leave too?

Can you give me 15 more mins? I need a bit more time and I’m leaving I promise.

A guy just sat a few meters away from. He’s drinking coffee and just said hi to me. You do know how to kick me out don’t you. I think i’ll leave now, I did enough talking for today.
