i remember you saying small things so small they could've gone unnoticed by so many people "i should just die right now," you said and people laughed and said "me, too," i remember my heart skipping a beat when i saw the darkness underlying your words and the grey colouring your tone i remember smiling and laughing it off because i knew you didn't want to talk about it but my mind was racing racing to stop the clouds from taking over you racing racing r a c i n g but not fast enough i remember my heart stopping when i saw the pills 1 2 3 ... ... ... 32 all gone down your throat i remember crying on the phone for the first time in a long time to someone else begging begging them to go over and check on you i remember cabbing down at 1.02am not quite sure how to feel i remember you throwing up 28 4 left in you thank god thank god t h a n k g o d i remember that night being a night full of morbid jokes because you didn't know how else to cope i remember laying beside you 3 people on a thin mattress meant for 2 but neither of us cared because you were breathing between us i remember you a year ago saying that people never stay with you can i be your constant? can i be the friend to stick by you? i remember so many things about you and i never want to see the day where the only way i can see you is to remember you
