8:47 pm. Some *** and coke slips down my throat. 10:04 pm. They ask about you and I answer effortlessly, slipping into some silent uneasiness. 12:18 am. A tear slips on to your written words I swore I wouldn't read over. Again. 12:31 am. I'm slipping shamelessly into everything we were. 12:35 am. Past tense slips off my tongue and I let it take me, hoping it'll turn to present by morning.
"You had me go from what I thought was sliding carefully to seriously slipping out of control"echoes through my headphones as I slip into sleep.
