the worst/draft/screaming

And if you're asking if I slept well the answer is no.

my eyes and heart are aching with cement stuck in between my toes

and your words in my fingers.

Tears come back to burn like the summer sun

tripping on my own eyelids

drowning in winter

drowning in you.

 

Your voice croaks from all the plastic you've swallowed.

Shadow after shadow I'm on my knees begging that you won't have another drink;

you see, I'm afraid that the burning of all the camera flashes and ***** have replaced the warmth of long term friendships and sarcastic complains.
