My reclamations lay in the corner: your old hoodie, a book, my memories resting upon the shelf of youth, collecting dust. I paw at them as if this was a game, as if I'm waiting in the jungle until someone rolls a 5 or an eight. As if jumangi was more than TV crews and cameras. I drag my finger over the book, leather bound and gold laced pages. I etch your name in the dust because it's sweeter than any childhood fantasy. My pregnant mind bulges with a love that's more fierce than a thousand fire-breathing dragons. I created a cottage out of pieces of our history, hidden memories lurk like dwarves. I wrap myself inside your clothes, fragrance like poisoned Apple's, I breath you in. I could dream of you for eternity as I accept my "sleeping death".

Daydreaming of a Disney dispair...
My reclamations lay in the corner: your old hoodie, a book, my memories resting upon the shelf of youth, collecting dust. I paw at them as if this was a game, as if I'm waiting in the jungle until someone rolls a 5 or an eight. As if jumangi was more than TV crews and cameras. I drag my finger over the book, leather bound and gold laced pages. I etch your name in the dust because it's sweeter than any childhood fantasy. My pregnant mind bulges with a love that's more fierce than a thousand fire-breathing dragons. I created a cottage out of pieces of our history, hidden memories lurk like dwarves. I wrap myself inside your clothes, fragrance like poisoned Apple's, I breath you in. I could dream of you for eternity as I accept my "sleeping death".
