We asked ourselves why we felt so alone, why we felt disconnected from the world, others, our family, even ourselves. With no dreams, no goals, no wants or true desires, we became apathetic to the future. We didn't see any kind of future. We told ourselves at a young age, that we'd soon depart from this place, to return home.
Milestones passed us by; schooling, turning of age to drink, moving states, our first real relationship, our first job, all the things between, our thirty birthday. Yet we feel as though we do not belong here. Never have. To this day, there is no future in our head, no point to it all. We do not belong, we are split from another timeline, in which this didn't happen, in where we didn't exist.
What even is home? What is this urge to return to the Unknown? There is nothing out there, awaiting. Life should be worth living and yet, an odd longing to return to what once was.
