There's A dark feeling in the pit of me but it's not in my stomach, It's like a wisp of black smoke, circling the very pit of my soul, not allowing it to escape. It slowly chokes, withers, & falls... So many sounds.
Now I feel empty, like I've lost everything; and with every tear that falls another piece of my heart is shattered by the jackhammer known as Fear... so many jagged edges.
And my veins are like a forest full of bare trees; someone is cutting them down with the edges of a blade. Each leaf like a drop of blood ...So many piles.

The Forgotten Garden
Once upon a time, nestled at the edge of a quaint village, there lay a forgotten garden. Overgrown with vines and tangled branches, its once vibrant flowers had wilted, and its pathways were obscured by years of neglect. Few remembered its existence, and even fewer dared to venture within its crumbling walls.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
