I saw a girl with long, long mousey brown hair today in town. I followed her, I couldn't help it. She was so pretty. She went to see a film all by herself. I lined up behind her. I could smell her perfume. She bought her ticket and I bought mine. I followed her to the theatre door, but her ticket was her cinema 4, and mine was for cinema 3. So she ( Read more... )

There's a girl who works at the information kiosk near my bus stop. She has dark skin and dark hair and her eyes are the deepest purest brown. I asked her for my bus time table, I asked her for pricing information. I even asked her for information about the ferry,..

,.. but I did not ask her out.

Oh God. I'm so alone.

I slept terribly last night. I had dreams of running for the phone but not being able to get to it. It rang and rang and I knew that I needed to get there before it rang out. After what seemed like a hundred years I woke up and jumped out of bed, stumbling for the phone. In the darkness I managed to key in star - ten - hash ( Read more... )

Last night, I watched the late night news. I turned the volume down and stared at the girl who reads the stories. It was like she was whispering sweet nothings to me. I didn't care what she was saying, only that she was saying them to me. I knew she wanted me. I knew that she wanted to be with me forever ( Read more... )

I heard the tune of the Ice Cream truck today. It meandered through the hills around my home. I waited for hours for it to come down my street. Eventually it drove by and I lined up to get a Soft Serve. I got to the window and the man said 'Sorry Buddy. I'm all out'. He closed the window and drove silently up the street ( Read more... )

I went to a bedding store today. There was a pretty girl at the front counter. She was short and had ringlets of red hair. I needed a new pillow but I thought about the red haired girl. How dearly I would love to lie next to her on a bed. Would she prefer a hard pillow or a soft pillow? I took both to the front counter. She had finished her shift ( Read more... )

Last night my fish hid in his tiny plastic castle. His goggle eyes avoided my stare. He is my only friend in the world trapped in his small round bowl. I tried to lure him out with fish food but he ignored my transparent pleas for attention. Perhaps he was asleep. This morning I awoke and he'd eaten all the food. My fish isn't hiding anymore ( Read more... )

I bought some calico today. I asked the girl if they had any gold buckles. She said she had some and showed me where they were supposed to be. Then she said that they must have been moved. She asked someone else for help then came back and told me that they'd run out. She and her friends must have laughed at me when I left ( Read more... )

I took the bin out today and my neighbour was standing on her front porch smoking a cigarette. With my hair draped over my face I glanced up at her. She saw me and turned her back on me. I took the bin out and came back to see the she still had her back turned to me. I went inside then glanced back out the door ( Read more... )

I stayed at home all day long today. My Pyjamas were my only suit. The rain stuck to my windows and poisoned the light in my room. I sat for an hour wishing, willing some strange beautiful woman to knock on my door and tell me she cared for me,...

,.. but all I heard were raindrops.

Oh God. I'm so alone
