the fabled new

I'm the girl in pink amidst the sea of black and grey. I'm thinking of dyeing my jacket an inconspicuous blue.

I like my freezing nose and the familiarity in the alien. I like the long walks and the 'look left' on the asphalt. I like the feeling of wanting to draw on warm, charcoal-y smoke each time I'm outside for very long. I like the feeling of extreme fatigue each time my head hits the pillow. I like watching the people dotting the square. I call it Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, for some reason.

I like that I'm dealing with change even though it seems like my head doesn't know it yet.
