Chapter Five: Rituals

Today I wake up. I eat and I work. As the sun sets, I sit and ponder about the day I had made for myself. I sleep.

Today I wake up. I eat and I try to accomplish something that will make me feel fulfilled. I am uncertain if that has happened yet. I sleep.

Today I wake up. I'm frustrated and lost. Nevertheless, I eat and occupy my time. I sleep.

Today I wake up. I eat and find a black cat lurking around my favorite reading nook. I name him "Kitty" and take him back to my home. I sleep.

Today I wake up. I eat and I work with my cat by my side, and I watch as a once, dear old friend chooses to betray me. She has taken "Kitty." I walk down the road, alone. I can't sleep.

And, I wish I could.
