i was waiting for you to get it.
i still am.

23/3

i want to sit on a roof at night and drink tea. i want to watch the rain fall down around me.
gather up your things. the light is peeking under the door. the clouds are breaking away. do you always follow their lead?

22/3

the sea is green and the sky is sad. why are you here? don't leave. you are the sunrise, but somehow you've set. i see beauty but all you hear are lies. your hands are cold, they're burning me. your cup of tea sits on the coffee table, it's leaving a ring. where are you? i blink and you're gone. your hands are still in mine, they're still. i want to make you laugh.

My eyelids are a time machine
They take me to the future.
When I shut my eyes, I see you.

18/3

My chest is constricting.
You're too close.
There's condensation on the window.
Think of flying away,
It'll ground you.
The clock reads 23:25
Time doesn't exist when you've escaped.
Count on your toes.
Think on your feet.
See with your ears.
Hear with your heart.
Hold me tight.
You're not close enough.
