so much said in such a short story... your work is very evocative and really resonates with me, this one especially.
several years ago, i moved out from the country i spent most of my life in, hoping for a better life in another country. while my current circumstances arent the best, i feel like i can never go back to my home country now. the world has moved on without me, and ive lost touch with most people i knew. ive even forgotten parts of my language. ive always felt alienated back home, so i thought itd be different here – it was not.
sorry if that was tmi. i just wanted to say youve really captured how it all feels.
oof ouch (complimentary)
i echo the sentiments of the comment by kalechips – the aching for a world that no longer resembles that which you once knew, but being too alien for the one you are currently in. "where am i supposed to go now" indeed...
