there is sadness, yes but not in the breath- stealing sobs you expect.
it comes in quiet absence
in the sound of the shower with no music to drown it out
in the loss of laughter between smiles and words
and
in the way weight shifts to avoid touching m o r e skin than necessary
it has been a long, LONG time since i've written anything substantial. but sometimes life spirals and you find yourself quite broken over something so **** small.
