& day after day the smoke occupied my lungs, hoping to evict the thoughts of you that danced in my head

it's late & i miss you
what else is new?
i'm hungry,
but i don't want to move
guess my tummy'll just keep on grumblin'
i don't need food
food doesn't need me
i'm fine all on my own
right?

i pour my stare into her eyes to make sure she knows the wells of my sorrow. she gazes back into mine as if to draw the pain from me & whispers, "i'm sorry." her words echo unending in the hollow within me. she won't stay. my throat caves in, & my voice escapes me. i'm mute with pleading. we crack like a smile when she slips in a "goodbye." my heart opens like a sinkhole & i'm plunging. i watch her wave as i fall still standing; her fingers slip into her pockets as she trails off. the town becomes a tar pit & i wade in...
