I have so many things on my mind I want to say but when I sat down to write, nothing comes up. My mind just goes empty. I feel empty. I can’t even think of anything.
The topic for the assignment was “How are you feeling today.” When I read the title, I thought it wouldn’t be so hard to write about how I’m feeling. But now that I’ve actually sat down to write, I don’t know how I feel.
For the past few days, my mood depends on the weather. If the weather is pleasant and it’s raining, I feel calm. But if it’s just cloudy and humid, it’s feels like something have died.
It’s been 10–15 minutes. Still nothing.
I decided to put on some music, hoping it might bring some thoughts & make me feel something. I went to YouTube and played one of my fav playlists- Old Italian Summer: a Piero Piccioni playlist.
And I closed my eyes.
Now it feels like I’m at a bistro by the beach in a small town where tourists don’t come. Waves crashing on shore, some locals working, some relaxing. I’m just sitting there, having my coffee & smoking a joint, watching people do their own thing and thinking about what to write. Maybe the ocean is what I’m missing in life that will make me feel something.
