zero sugar
right now there is a storm of sun
no sound in sight
cats are asleep
lips pale and pursed

sometimes i just need a hug

not the harsh words
maybe i just dont want to listen
to the truth
maybe im just too overwhelmed

sensitive.

i would never ask
for something like this
stabbing teeth into my wrists

like a dog, i follow you,
i admire you
but
sometimes all i need
is a hug
exhausted
torn apart.

and if one day
you decide to stop calling
i’ll still be leaving my phone
with the sound on
for the night

Too many words that
just get in the way
