GRAZED KNEES


There is a thing they call fate.

Fate brought me here. Where I'm still intimidated by the people around me who seem to know everything. Where I'm so far away from all things familiar and routine. Logically I should feel at home, because this is where I'm essentially from. Where I grew up. Nevertheless I still find myself trying to figure out the roads I take every morning to work. I don't know the best places to grab a bite if I'm alone. I don't know the nearest ATMs from home.

Fate tells me that I'm to go back and rediscover myself and my hometown I've left too long. I've been ignorant and I've forgotten.

I just don't know things anymore.

So much has changed.

I have to do this. A reflection of my past. Maybe I'll learn something.

So that I know how far I've become.

Fate made me leave everything and everyone I love behind, but it also gave me the chance to start fresh, away from the hurt and bruises.
