Prompt Five: Day
Carpe Diem
I love the day time. I love the distraction it brings from my thoughts. There's too much time to dwell on unpleasant things at night. Day time keeps you busy.
Routine is everything. Wake up, grab coffee, go to work, work on my pottery, spend time with my friends, go home, eat, watch television, sleep, repeat. It's comforting and it keeps my mind working. I don't have time to think about him.
I like that day is also versatile. You never know what's going to happen; will it rain, will it be sunny, cloudy, cold, warm, windy? Possibility is wonderful. And there's always the option to break away from the routine, and do something new. Like, should I go to the fair? Maybe I should take a trip. I wonder if Hagu's busy today; maybe we should hang out.
Night time is cold and unfriendly. It's always the same, and it's always impersonal. You can do anything with the day, it's yours to make your own, but the night will inevitably end up the same, no matter how you try and change it. The night is never yours; it's never mine. Night will always belong to him.
Day is my rescuer.
