disoriented

My knees ached from another day of running from the front to eh back of a large building, my palms dried, bashed, and hardened by another day of cardboard and wooden pallets. Walking with my head hung low and my headphones on. I looked up to see the sky was dark from clouds instead of the normal night sky. The sky was filled with storm clouds that started to pop lighting as I passed onto the overpass. I suddenly remembered how much lighting scared me as child and I realized how little it felt watching the lighting slice through the sky breaking off into groups of two, three, and so on. My pace had slowed to a stand still as I watching the lighting crack through the holes in the fence keeping me from falling onto unsuspecting cars. I just stood there observing the bright flashes and how if any got close enough to me I would be blind, unable to do what I'm in school for. Standing there all I could think as negative thoughts. I hadn't moved for sometime when I saw another steady light out the corner of my eye, it was the moon. It was only half a moon but it was enough to take my mind from all the thoughts that were weighting me down to that spot. Only half a moon made me thinking of so many times I would be trapped in thought watching it from the rear seat window thinking the moon was chasing our car through the city. I smiled a little and started to walk again, looking up at the moon and thinking how silly I used to be. Why would the moon want to chase me?


and also I needed another post
