Five minute fic: "Somewhere out there..."
Somewhere out there, you're sitting playing with your daughter not
thinking of me while I'm somewhere out here, playing with no one
thinking of you the whole time. What you're doing and when you're doing it.
I live my life 3 hours behind everyone else. No one understands why my
mind isn't here. Why 8am is actually 11am and why I kick my self at night
for not being there with you. And I hope you kick yourself for not being
here with me but I know you won't because you're too busy with
the other things in your life. A daughter and a wife aren't things, but it's
easier to think they are. You can just throw things away if you're
bored with them. Throw them away and come here.
But you can't, and you won't. You'll never come here, because for you,
you're already "here" and for you I'm not "here", I'm somewhere out there.
