scrolling through your music, nonchalantly nah. nope. no-- one song makes you freeze. you haven't listened to it in months and you did so on purpose. that thing has so much attached to it. you stare and ponder. maybe it isn't so bad anymore? you snap out of your thoughts and scoff. it's just a song. yet, you sigh. your thumb hovers over the 'play' button and hesitantly makes contact with it. in a split second, you're dazed. words laced with melodies, a concoction poisonous to you and only you. the music grabs you by the waist dragging you through the walls you've built around your memories until your back slams onto rock bottom and for a moment, you're stuck in there again.
