There are so many things to answer, all those mouths that are asking. The world to be touched but I can't sleep and so tried reading a book left behind in this room by some stranger, and became absorbed by it, and now it is finished and tucked under the pillow with favourite passages circled and pages dogeared and my mind spanning with stars. I go to the window now and again to see the street but keep the curtains closed full most of the time, because I am trying to sleep, to hide, to be still. And then sometimes I go to the door to listen to the sounds in the hall and wonder what I am doing, curling my fingers to the wood, resting there feeling so tired.
And I want to see Mish but that is a bad idea. But Stitch is away and I know no one else and I can't see Cilla I can't and I need someone to talk to, to be grounded. I am frightened by what is happening and somehow the idea of familiar faces is comforting even though I avoided everyone for so long, wanting to be alone, with myself, with my music.
I am going to go for a walk. I will see how I feel then.
