Return

Written by Jacob Ibrag

‘She’ll see you now sir.’ Sure she

will, and so will the rest of the world.

The unraveling of me. A chance to pick

apart a human. ‘Forms ready?’ No, but I

signed them. I’m a walking diagnosis,

a soul waiting for its return ticket.

    I love this. “The unravelling of me” for the world to see. “Picking apart a human” and “a walking diagnosis”..such great phrases. Please know I am an ardent follower even though I may not leave words.

    Very interesting perspective on the anticipation of meeting someone, you really described the mindset of the individual waiting for whatever comes next in life well.

    As always, the twist in your works are so uncalled for. Leaves me wondering how you do it every time.
