This life is but a whisper in a roaring fire, and my feelings are a stream of dissipating smoke. I look blindly into the future, with blood upon my eyes as I heed a calling.
Walking my dog to the library to return my book at 1 AM on a monday night in Capitol Hill was erie. The streets were so desolate that it was almost as if time had stopped, and it was just my dog an I, blasting System of a Down into my ears. It was quite placid, and it intensified my tendency to feel isolated. However, with this isolation comes solace, quite strangely. With my schedule at work, my day begins at 3 PM and ends around 11 PM. So naturally, I've been staying up till 5AM and waking up around 2PM. While I love this schedule, because I've always adored the night and hated the morning, sometimes I feel as if I'm the only person alive. I now know what it feels like to be so alone in a city of millions, and I adore it.
