All I do is sleep.
&. The bills will be lower now without this constant electricity running through my veins.
Without swollen stars exploding in my head.



I wish I could burn.
Like pages in your book.
Attach them to my wounds.




Just to show you I read every sentence.




I toss and turn for hours.
Under foggy distance.
Wishing I could taste snow.




But today. It only rains.




I left everything the same.
Stacked and piled up like remnants of yesterday.
Not ready to let go.
Knowing the railing can only hold me for so long.




I wonder if your coat caught the bridge before you had time to jump.
If the book slipped from your grip.
If I.
Slipped.




If you changed your mind.



I glittered all my wounds.
Pretty mess I was laying on the floor.
Stitching the holes in your jacket.



Just to make everything ok.



Exploding.



& All I ever do is dream.



Of what it would be like to look at you from above.



If I’m just a remnant of yesterday.
A shattered pile of bones under stiff frozen grass.
Breathing through the holes of earth.


Slipping.

this reeks with the imagery of waiting, of living in the past and in empty, hopeless wanting

Omg...the imagery in this...the heart-numbing, mind-fragmenting, in-your-face reality of still slipsliding your way into a dream of holding someone's heart when it feels as if they're only pulling away more quickly...this...I know. ~*Beth*~
