It was like a tornado warning on a sunny day, like a “made in China” label on an American flag, like a welcome sign on a jammed door – it was like pulling my car on the wrong side of the gas pump, like taking a test without an eraser, like waking up in a different bed – it was like stealing from the donation basket in church, like the feeling when someone looks at me and laughs – it was like vomiting for more hours than I drank, like cheating with someone and then getting cheated on – it was like a demon lived in my gut, like a prayer with no response, like starving for days – it was like the world was moving forward but my world was ending, it was like losing you over and over again
all in one moment, all in one word.
