There is a price, believe it or not.
Whether it's fulfilling the body's needs, or matters of the heart, I find myself at odds with a maintenance fee far beyond my means. Setting aside extra blood, sweat, and tears for a rainy day when the moment arises that I must forgive & relent.
My mind is sometimes too colorful, too circuitous in nature that I can't keep still. I sleep, thinking of new ways to go about being a better version of me, and gaining the affection of the faceless figure that appears right before I disappear, giving me life.
