It's the loneliest feeling in the world
to find yourself standing up
when everyone else is sitting down. To have
everybody look at you and say,
“What’s the matter with her?” I know what it
feels like. Walking down an empty street, listening to the
sound
of your own footsteps. Shutters closed, blinds
drawn, doors locked against you. And you
aren’t sure
whether you’re
walking toward something, or if you’re just walking
away.
