Into the night I drive, headlights peering curiously at me before passing by in slow motion. Everything has become drenched in this murky darkness, dragging and pulling at my frayed edges. Hardly can I recognize myself any longer, as I stare blankly in the mirror, dead eyes glazed over. Old love, do you happen to see the listless dreams within the lines dug through my once smooth skin? Hysterics bubble to the surface of my lips as I remember again how you threw my love in my face, clearly you had it in abundance. Realizing that you simply don't care, as you can't even bring yourself to meet my pleading gaze. Admitting defeat, I turn away, dragging my decimated heart behind me, down into the inky valley where I'll wait. I'll wait until I am able to understand that I am worth a love as grand as mine, someone who puts the Sun and Moon into my skies, as I blindly thought you once did for me. A love so bold it brings shame to the beasts who chase each other across galaxies, time and time again. Perhaps someday I'll be more than a pit stop on someone's promiscuous road and I'll find a home in this careless world. Where forever doesn't come with an expiration date.
