This room smells like sadness and stale cigarettes and the air is thick and humid and this Xanax in my system is slowing my brain down so that the letters of your name are replayed over and over again in my mind. Someone asked me what my poems were about and I respond blankly with the word "nothing" because that's all I feel when I think of the fact that you don't love me. Why don't you love me? Why are these pills the only thing that can make me feel anything?
