maybe i was cursed; or unlovable or just someone that couldn’t be tolerated for long periods of time. i hope i was cursed maybe I’m just suffocating maybe I’m supposed to feel like this the cold November night hit like a car going a little too fast, a great gushing wind. something that numbs. i kept my head clear for as long as i could, i promise you. but somehow i always lean back to when tea doesn’t taste as sweet anymore and my favourite show turns grey and i can’t look at you the same. i fear it will last forever. i fear it won’t. i fear i may never be myself again, that i’ll never get her back. i fear that I’ll get her back and i won’t know what to do with it. i’m in this constant state of never anywhere. i’m like a cloud. or the rain as it falls, and disappears and dissolves. i’m like an old vhs player, a broken clock, a fine China vase with a chip in it. I’m like a heater in the summer, or a fan in the winter. i can never get it quite right.
