i remember
i am remembering a voice i have never heard.
you have come alive, after your death.
i lost you. i am to blame.
im losing myself to you. i am to blame.
somebody tell her to come back to me.
i promise never to harm her
i promise to be good
i promise, just someone, bring her back to me.


these feelings came to me when I remembered to breathe while realizing you are no longer here


every time I do
i die, more than a lot, on the inside



your name is pretty
tell it to me
what was it ?
what was it really ?

the silence
isn't all that bad until I realize you're not there to answer.


im stuck here, writing notes as I messaged you just a week ago

But with no response
instead just the off beat of my heart
Telling me you're gone
Reane ...
