i often wonder how i will die. skin cancer. heart complications. liver cirrhosis. old age. undetermined cause. ******. accidental overdose. i daydream that it will come soon. my future without you feels like a false floor. i'm waiting for you to appear with white gloves, wand in hand, to whisk me away. to climb into our coffins side by side, a twisted amusement park ride. ****** cotton candy and jagged fun house mirrors. being alone is stuffy weight. despite the added space, my chest is tense and eyes are bugged. your hands, your voice, your warmth would set me free.
