Instead, I give you simple tragedies; how you will never remember everything and the more you live the more there is forgotten. Sewn optical cords seeing the reimagined through blurry suspicion, stifling doubt, and ****** buttons. Metallic words cutting skin like butter. The knives will sink slowly into our chests and we will be exactly too far away from anyone to do anything about it. How convenient. A set of hands, their cross-stitched fingers frayed at the ends, entangling. Still, they will stumble to pick up the pieces, to fix the seaming in the strings.

So You Want Love
Instead, I give you simple tragedies; how you will never remember everything and the more you live the more there is forgotten. Sewn optical cords seeing the reimagined through blurry suspicion, stifling doubt, and ****** buttons. Metallic words cutting skin like butter. The knives will sink slowly into our chests and we will be exactly too far away from anyone to do anything about it. How convenient. A set of hands, their cross-stitched fingers frayed at the ends, entangling. Still, they will stumble to pick up the pieces, to fix the seaming in the strings.
