"I...I don't belong here, do I?"

Tears welled up in his eyes and his chest burned painfully, tight with emotion. 

"Will-Will I ever get to go home? Do I have a home? I swear, I can feel it, it's somewhere. Emotions, fragments, it has to be... Yet, why can't I remember it? Is it real? Am I delusional? Where am I... -Will I always be lost?"

______________________________________

A lost character. Lost. In a way.
He remembered the day he woke up, everything blank behind him. "Whats my name? Where am I? Who are you?"
Warm faces were around him, almost familiar, but not. Mom, Dad. Thats right, right? Thats who you are?
That...Seems right. Okay...Mom and Dad. Yeah.

He didn't question it for a long time. He went about his dull life with his dull family in a dull world.
It never really did seem right. He didn't fit in. He always daydreamed.
He spent more time dreaming than facing reality.
He never really grew up.
"It's just wanderlust." That is what he pinned it down to, that is what everyone told and reassured him.
But nothing really did reassure him. It felt like lies stacked up on-top of each other.
And Damn, did it hurt him.
That weight was crushing and damning and depressing.
Like mountains stacked up on his shoulders.
Like snakes whispering sweet and sultry words into his ears.
Like anchors tied to his ankles.

It was impossible, it had to be.
Yet he knew there was no other way it could be.
He didn't belong in this world.
He wasn't made for such a place.
He came from somewhere that shouldn't exist, and deep down he knew it, and deep down he remembered it.
Though, how could he ever get home to somewhere that didn't exist?
