Maybe..
just maybe you’re thinking of me too, the same way I do of you.

Promises are meant to be broken.
Commitment meant to be betrayed.
Forgive me, I am yours forever.
Sorry if you were reading it. I lost inspiration. Writer’s block? I have no idea. I’ll start a new series soon though
John didn’t come to school that day, I imagined he was sick or something; I never imagined he’d be behind a fast food place with a lighter. The next day all he could talk about was how “blown” he’d gotten with his buddy. I wouldn’t call that buddy a friend because what kind of friend would accompany you, while you threw your life away, and not say anything? He knew I didn’t want to hear it so he turned to Jenny, the cool card friend, and started rambling on and on. He seemed to find joy in the fact that he couldn’t remember part of that day, he found joy knowing he’d ditched school to pursuit happiness. A happiness that only lasted a couple of hours, I never understood that. To me, happiness was about finding the one that you loved, succeeding in school, and getting a well-paying job, then later having kids and being able to gift them anything they desired. Happiness meant never having to worry about money, never having to worry about anything. I felt that John had a false perception of happiness, but maybe I did. John made me question a lot of things without asking me anything; he made me start looking at my life through his eyes. John’s eyes were dark brown, but my hazel eyes blended in without a problem.
After I had that dream, I couldn’t help but to connect it to the influences around me. For example, the clouds must have been the cocaine I was always thinking about. John was the grass. He was suffocating me with a life I didn’t know about. He was the sharp weeds that could be potentially harming, not to mention, he did weed himself. I didn’t know if I should consider the dream a nightmare or an insight; but I should have foreshadowed. I started my morning routine at 5 am; after two hours of laying on my bed restlessly I came to the conclusion that it was time to be productive. Something about that morning seemed odd. It might have been the lack of sleep, but it might have been something else. They say every human is born with a brain that carries enough knowledge to save the world, but we can’t access all of it. They also say that along with knowledge, people carry a sixth sence; like knowing what’s to come. I like to think of myself as having that sixth sence; but on mornings like those the sixth sence feels more like a rock than an enlightenment. My glare felt heavy as did my charisma; it was a feeling I had only experienced two years ago when I saw my grandfather in a dream, my grandfather passed away seven years ago. I continued my morning with a bowl of cereal and a kid’s TV show; something about mornings made it acceptable for a teenager to watch animated animals help kids count to five.
