__[Hermit]__ _/ˈhɝmɪt /_ A recluse; someone who lives alone and shuns human companionship. One last promise of a kiss; but who hears the words of someone’s misplaced lips— Memories are all archived, those experiences, a treasure to bury deep in the chambers of a heart And any extra time: an excuse for me to procrastinate…how I choose to express my reasoning, is an explanation for another day _for the all the memories we had, will all remain locked away our experiences a treasure I’ll never get the pleasure to saviour in their worth. and any reason to chase after them all in a day, becomes the procrastination of tomorrow… our story ends here_ In a thin book of divination; the conclusion of a love that had the fill of a loaf of bread- here we are- with the crumbs, holding onto what’s left. There is no grasping it. All climaxes eventually fall into the obscurity of being an old familiar harmony; the laughs of many, soon becomes the quit chuckles of one who sits later alone. And all joyous songs must play their very last chord _anticlimactic will be the story of us, painfully laughing ourselves to sleep— those fortunate enough to sing our once beautiful song- the words, chords, keys, and harmonies are all gone… our story ends here_ I am something inadequate; a follower to the gun, the bullet that led me astray in its cold lead. Still don’t lend me your sorrow; shunning the idea of love For the gun that killed a benevolent concern, was a gun I had pointed at myself. __…Bang!__
