The heat crowds me. My exhaustion drowns me. I want to breath underwater. Let me just rest my eyes. Uno. Dos. Tres. Bang! Bang! Shotguns jolt me up as I scramble to puzzle the pieces back together. Water spills over itself and to the floor. An empty room in silence. Waiting. Uno. Due. Tre. You will forget this. I promise. I adore you. But I’m just too tired.

Too Tired
The heat crowds me. My exhaustion drowns me. I want to breath underwater. Let me just rest my eyes. Uno. Dos. Tres. Bang! Bang! Shotguns jolt me up as I scramble to puzzle the pieces back together. Water spills over itself and to the floor. An empty room in silence. Waiting. Uno. Due. Tre. You will forget this. I promise. I adore you. But I’m just too tired.
