if i stare at the empty wall
for any longer, i fear that i will
start to mimic its lifeless brevity.
simple. but heartbroken in its execution.
refined, but lonely.
i can hear the water drip
drop
from my sink.
if i listen any longer i fear that
i will start to mimic its monotone nature
forgotten in its own space.
but embracing its own flaws.
i fear.
