Tangles

Every time someone thinks about you, you are a character in their story. Think of how many stories you are a part of. You are mentioned by every person you meet, and by countless people that notice you from a glance. Feel like a superstar- there are countless tales being woven with you, from you, about you, around you.

I feel like I'm submerged in tangled story lines with bits sticking out, all frayed at the ends, and knots where I can't linger long.
I can grasp at the strings and pull them down around me or tip-toe my way through them and attempt to not interfere. Who can watch stories unfolding for long, without interfering?
I wish I could develop these characters how I would like to. To do so, however, would be to control the story in its entirety by controlling these vital puzzle pieces within it- they are the basis of every story. Nobody can truly do this. 
That would defeat the purpose of living; of everything.
