Mushroom clouds hang thick with a special guest appearance by a menthol cigarette. The same color box you carry in your back pocket. The same chemicals in your lungs live inside mine. I can feel you pulsating behind my eyelids while I mouth the words "I'm sorry" at your telephone number. I don't even know what I'm apologizing for but I miss you terribly and I hate myself for not talking to you. Please don't die. And I pray to god "why do you make me so sad?" And he won't tell me a **** thing Him and you like keeping secrets from me. While he gives people sermons hallelujahs and amens I get an echo of words in my head.
