ain’t the first—that hurts

the colossal man had said, ‘sometimes, the bravest thing to do is just to keep going.’

In Jogja, we fell asleep on a bench, thought it was hidden enough from the main road, but—around midnight, a security guard woke me up. ‘shite! We’re caught,’were me first thought. Then in the morning, we thanked him for letting us crash in his post so we could rest a bit before heading to Solo.

reminds me of the time when me dad just passed away—I was calm, talking normal with folks around, but …when i rang a mate on the phone, me couldn’t say a word. Just sobbed, tears streamin down like I’d burst open.
