Hate to say...

I told you the world was dying.
Everyone just said I was being Miley, but I carried on saying it.
I carry on saying it.
You all think that this time next year you will be out there riding the rollercoasters again.
You all thin that you can pack the cinema's and watch someone with super-powers saving the world while the actual world crumbles around you.
Bad things have happened this year. You continue to debate the number of genders and if it's PC to identify as a penguin.
Bad things have happened this year. You continue to consume, you live on piles of things you don't need while your paracetamol, toilet paper, flour and tinned pies rot in the pantry.
Bad things have happened this year. You continue to go on the internet and shout 'look at me, I am special, I have something'
Bad things have happened this year. You create new dances and watch as a million people copy those dances.
Bad things have happened this year. You pump out more children in the hope it will fill the gap you created when you 'settled'.
I could go on but I am no better than you. I know no more than you. I live the same life as you. I want the same things as you.
Bad things have happened this year. Bad things will keep happening. Things are not ending. Things are just starting. Then they will end and the world will be a landfill.

This is not a suicide note.  I am not allowed to do that. That would make me the bad guy. If things were a bit different though I would deffo be eating toast in the bath. I hope I get ill again.

I am never shown any love and I don’t really do anything I enjoy. All the things I am supposed to enjoy either I don’t or I get stopped from doing by other people who are supposed to care about me. I am now old enough to know I will never get what I want in my life. This is it, my best days are behind me and I wasted them on making do. The sun comes out and I get sunburn in the hope that it will fix my skin. In the hope it will make me better. It just makes my skin fall off in different ways and hurt from a new angle. I look for stuff to fill the box I live in. The space is getting smaller and ...

And then they all stopped talking. What had they been saying? It was definitely something to do with me. I don’t mind. It just makes me laugh to myself. I need to laugh. Even if it’s just an internal thing.  The guy with no hair is round again. Buzz buzz buzz . You open the window but the wasp won’t flay out. He would be better off out there in the world but he would sooner be banging into windows. You bump into the criminal by accident. What do you say? Does he know I know? He must do. He knows the environment. He knows what’s happening. What do you say? You say ‘alright’ and then you move past. You are glad you don’t have your child with you. That would have been weird.  You go back through history. You see all the relics and ignore them for plastic hiding in cabinets.  You are melting. Your skin is coming off. The machine won’t work. Why won’t the machine work? And you try and you try and you try and everyone is looking at you and you are melting.  An...
