There's nothing left inside me anymore. Nothing left to feel, right now. I am scraped out, scratched out, leaking empty.
"So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, for ever, you and me, every day."
i can't even write anything of my own. nothing. i miss you. everything inside me aches. and the absence of words, and feeling, little vibrations in the air slice away. and you can play your video-games & your guitar & you can feel better. i'll do my thing. i'll sit in the dark, against the radiator & cry, until its numb and nothing can touch me.
feeling anything, even admitting to that, it is better than feeling nothing,. right?
((perhaps you think i can't remember. i remember what you said, what you said that mattered. and i wondered if you meant it. & i hope, and hope))
Feeling: emptied out
Listening to: the inflections and intonation in noah's voice. in my head.
Pretending: that if this is it, i'll be fine.
