Still breathing

There was a daddy long-legs in my shower. Alone. Both of us were vulnerable. But it was trapped alone forever. What a lonely existence it must lead. I wondered how long it had been in my bathroom for....without anyone.

I bought The Big Issue the other day. They're always selling one outside the supermarket. I've recently been listening to Madeleine Peyroux. Inside The Big Issue was an article about her life. She was busking and living on the streets of Paris, aged seventeen. The same age as me. I can't imagine that loneliness. Music saved her. I think music saves me every day. It stops you from feeling alone.
