"I knew who I was when I'd called myself "Ms" Now that I'm "Mrs." I don't know who "I" is..." ~R.T.M. When did my window close? I wondered with nose pressed firm against cold glass watching in horror as life continues to pass by in a blaze of glory where in the world was I? baking cakes, tending scrapes dreaming on the side just biding my time or so I thought Some how I'd gotten caught in ways I'd secretly despised~ smiley faced women at home baking pies, a bunch of little crumb snatchers with dirty shirts, hugging knees & pulling skirts while she patiently waits for him~ the baby-maker who can stay slim Where's my freakin' fairytale? the one that will keep me from going insane, I swear I'm about to blow up in here I can't breathe~ like a knocking-knee'd bachelor on his wedding day I need to get away but there's just no where to go because right here is everything damn thing I know How could I have let my window close...
