Like a ghost just out of grasp it strips off another piece of me Settling for table scraps Gorging myself on meager crumbs It will not be satiated. We are not meant to be understood in these fragments. Good luck, I will it. Good luck, it meanaces, Good luck good luck good luck Shield the glow, stagnate in time Pushed myself off the pedestal to place you upon it. Silly girl. Silly me. While your promises are as empty a substance as dead air, I know that every word you tell yourself is true. Only facts can tell you how to destroy a simple thing, and you tried to destroy the last simple piece of me I ever knew. Good luck, good luck, good luck It will be an honor to grieve you, as it means I was able to love you.
