when you don't have the clothes to put on.

when you can't dress up and go out.

when you aren't your social calendar.

the way you look and the people you go places with.

when there aren't distractions. hobbies.

when you're only who you are

when you're alone

and there's no one to talk to,

and no where to go

no plans to hide behind

and no getting ready to preserve the time.

does it stand up?

does my life stand up?

or is it all the things that I do to fill the time.
