Who Am I

I watch you from afar
Read the words that flow from your brain

It's hard to watch a flame burn
Not being able to get too close
Not being able to reach out
I'm behind this glass on a small box in my hand... well  more of a flat rectangle. 

Life is strange 
You are somebody I used to know
But don't know anymore
And you don't know me
I don't know me

Hope you're doing well. I'm okay. Moving in October. Finally got my raise. Still waiting on insurance. Still think about you every day. Had a dream you reached out to me last night. Anywho, PLR.
