his words stuck in my brain like a feather in tar. tasseled and ruined and destined to stay that way. our time ran thin and quick like the air in my lungs that night. gasping for air like i’d never known how to breathe again. his touch lingers on my skin, running around every inch of my body. i’m still waiting for those 7 years to pass so i can have a body completely untouched by yours. i can’t get the image of him out of my head like a bad scar you regret getting. it only seems to be getting darker. when it ended i swore i’d never feel again. and i just want to say, if you’re heart broken; hold onto to that, because if you let that feeling go. you just might be a cold stone trown into the void of a sea of emotions. — thinking about you again. -j.p.
