Okay so let's get started shall we?

I sank into the cushions of today. Some empty promise was stuck in between the velvet of one and the other and in my attempt to find it I was smothered. I sank deeply into the flower and ivy design and lost my way for the time being. It was there that I made the discovery.

I came face to face with the loneliness that I had tucked neatly away in the back pocket of my blue jeans about 2 and a half weeks ago. Apparently, it slipped out and swam its way into the couch, next to pennies, lint, my promise, and now the new member of such society- me.

How dare I forget about something so relevant to my past, so important. How dare I forget it even existed in the first place. There it was, though, in the same condition as when it first escaped me. Eager to return to it's creator, eager to please, eager to feast on whatever emotion had taken its place. So very eager to undermine my current condition and state.

I did not know what to do at this point. Should I escape and make today just another day? Should I stick today amongst days like March 25th or January 16th or July 7th? Days where nothing important happened, days that came and went and became the little dust specks on the window of the whole. Is that where today belongs?

Or is there something more to feeling so empty?
