last day off

last year

a shakey handoff

(at best)

constantly choosing between

life and sleep

haven’t slept in years

when i do;

my dreams were a gothic spinoff

love interest played by wednesday.

black and white lens

for thee ending send-off

all black molotov

(for those who couldn’t be here)

with fireworks

and a rip off.

a new letter, new address

Dear ,

did you believe

we’d get here

all those years

i remember us as kids;

heading home from school

(that’s the first time we kissed)

it’s seared into my lips

like a memory

a memory

of younger days

and it burns

like a bad knee in the rain

rainy days

bring these memories flooding back

& here

here today

i wonder what you are up to

we should grab a bite

sometime

love,

sam
