Almost There

by Charlie in sadness and everything along with it

I have no one. My two best friends are not in the country. Whenever I have something urgent to tell them, I almost always have to wait for a few hours before I could read their response.

I’m annoyingly impatient about some things. It’s a lifelong struggle and battling it is like a slow, painful death.

There are things that you hope will get you Somewhere but sometimes gets you Nowhere. It hurts, but not as much as getting to Almost There and seeing it—whatever it is—disappear forever instead. Without warning. Without a fallback. Just gone.
