Posted: Saturday, April 30, 2022 Word Count: 55 Summary: I got a few in. When I arrived in London, at 18, I still remember it being the loneliest feeling in the world. Still no idea why I didn't hop on the next coach back home! Couldn't have been that bad though, 33 years later and I'm still down here :-) |
Early May
I arrive.
In my suitcase
there are no
proper clothes
for this
strange climate
this variant
of sun
rarely seen
in the North.
Crowds in
shallow focus
packed clothes
like me
inappropriate
in this city.
I am a lost baby.
My penalty
for running
from a world
where I feel
so old.
