on most days I feel
either nothing at all or
everything at once.

we sit clutching each other
on my ****** bed in this ****** apartment.
on the other side of that wall, there's him;
a drug addict I can't seem to get over.
and on the other side of the other wall, there's her;
a stuck up ***** you can't seem to get over.
we can hear them both, they surround us on either side.
and in the middle of these two thin ****** walls is two people,
who are trying to escape two ****** people
with the ****** comfort of each other.

**** the drunk, lonely night
I stumbled into your bed.
this is all my fault.

You whisper my name "mercy"
In my ear and you look intently into my eyes

But I swear all I heard was "kiss me"

So I did what I was told.
