by @charles-barnett

Your name never fails to appear. On little LCD screens. On the back of my eyelids where I trace the letters as if they belonged to me. My heart claws its way up my throat like the way I claw at my scalp. My face. My hair. Everytime my phone lights up, your name never fails to appear.
