some wounds never heal. they linger and fade into tangible griefs inside our bones — like the shallow rivers still moving in my body after your leaving. oh, such a fleeting daydream turning into a perpetual nightmare can never be too perfect for a godless monument of my reservation, sweet indecision — of my self-inhibitions that once spilled storms on your genuine heart. but like a hand hovering harmless fire — close enough to feel its warmth, but all too afraid to burn — this love bleeds out a memory of a life that has almost happened. and grieving can only do so much. grieving can only help so much. some wounds, honey — some wounds never really heal like this shadow of regret in the quiet shape of you.
