Left on Red

My comfort zone is approximately 3 feet around me in any direction.
I've never been much of a thrill seeker.
People tell me that if I want to grow as a person, I've got to stretch that and try something new.

So I started doing that with little safe things like ordering food or drink I wasn't sure I'd like.
Or turning left at a red light that I know wasn't going to change for a long time in the middle of the night.

And I know, i know these are mostly safe
But I want to grow
So I have to keep pushing
Like telling her how I actually feel
But the only thing worse than knowing your words are left unread
Is knowing you were left on "Read"

Though I still see her as a little sister type, she calms me, like knowing she's in the room next door makes ticking slow.  Especially when Michael is there too. She's the Chloe Grace Moretz to my Joseph Gordon-Levitt.  I may want to look after her, Matt, and Jed, and of course Emily and Michael as well. But Emma is so much more mature than me at times. Especially since she has experienced a lot of the same things I have. I don't feel as lonely here as I did with Her. I've been awake for almost 60 hours now. I'm still lonely. I still want to feel cared about.  And I get that when I'm around Emma and Matt and somewhat Jed. But now my main two friends from work got transferred to different departments so now I'm alone there too. I think I'm broken. I don't know what the fut...
