Mundane melody

by emily-raso

The windows fogged, but my breath cannot blow hard enough to finger draw the shape of my heart. I got carried away at the grocery store. I finally realized there are no differences between Macintosh or Fuji apples and the sprinkler mist does not drip so delicately off of spinach anymore. I took a walk at night to regain some clarity, but the blurred streetlights in the distance did not make me feel nostalgic. I howled at the moon, No response. I’m scared of the distorted image within a puddle, what if the warped reflection starts to look more clearer than ever before?
