Don't fall in love with a drummer
You will hear him in every beat of every song
You will hear his voice imitate those beats
You will see him and his arms that used to hold you sweep over the cymbals and hollow cylinders
You will feel each hit of his drum sticks in your stomach and lungs instead of on thoseΒ cymbals and hollow cylinders
You will remember the way he seemed to escape into another place from the moment of first impact
You will feel his arms guide your hands over the correct circles
Like he wanted you to escape with him
You will miss the sounds of him losing himself in the noise
You will miss the feeling of losing yourself in his noise
