thirteenth year.

it was the missing piece
that still didn’t fit,
the jagged edge of the mountain top,
the melted candle half-lit.

the girl who tried too hard
to stand out or blend in,
the hotel floor that wasn’t there
and the unknown ghosts within.

a crowd with nameless faces,
the present with no card,
two socks that don’t match,
a security officer sleeping on guard.

thirteen.
