I was brought her under the false impression that this was one big adventure I listened to my intuition (hopelessly wrong) I was confident and excited and young but time can change people Now I feel older than the trees in Century Park trapped in a concrete jungle despairing, hopeless, but alive; my confidence withered like the cacti on my balcony hot,...
