I stubbornly waste time that could have been better spent daydreaming I quietly waste lines, fill them with ugly thoughts, should have laid down the pen Exhaling the last drag, sudden lightness, inevitably followed by relentless heaviness Eyes wide shut I attempt to slow myself down, but my legs wonβt allow it, my hands plainly refuse it Though my mind screams for it, fueled by caffeine & nicotine, crashing & burning occasionally Always resurrected by your memory, our memory Faded & worn around the edges like boxes of old photographs, collecting dust
