You knew that she didn't want to be with anyone else but him. Still, you pinned your hopes on a balloon knowing that all that would be left in your hand would be shredded red rubber.
If you can't sleep then take prozac.
Descend through the doors, past the pleasant, tolerant, ticketing machine,
into the just what the doctor ordered, just right - not too neurally exciting - self-love train, arriving in heaven for breakfast, and also lunch and dinner for those, who through denial and poverty, can't furnish a return
You knew that the 'big fat' bubble, you wistfully labelled "possibilities, possibilities, possibilities", was in fact a small burp making its way through your tightly packed stomach. You felt if for more than it was worth. Allowing it to seal you off from the increasingly acidic curdle of your misdirected hope.
So, it will be in your weaker moments, when your dreams can provide no distraction - 3am - that you reach for your cat with nine tails, each knotted three times, to whip yourself into a silent, frothing agony. Morning can't come too soon or too bright.
You knew, because you felt sadness in her company.
You felt a seamless, translucent layer enclose your hand, like a forth skin, but without the flexibility or nerve to curve and form a cradle of your fingers and palm along the contours of her cheek and chin. Sadness welled and dwelt with the fissure formed from your fear across the cristalline plate of your undisclosed enthusiasm. Too deep for any coin to settle within and grant your wish of time wrapped in place and a heart wrapped in mind.
