I am a dark bowl, waiting to be filled. If I open my mouth now, I could drown in the rain.

I hurry home as though someone is there waiting for me. The night collapses into your skin. I am the rain.

i wish i had learned from you. i wish i could remember the lessons that i was supposed to have learned. i’m still here where you left me, waiting by the phone, stuck in the time when you still wanted me. i never lived past you, i never learned to live without you. my heart beats for you, even after all this time and all the ways you told me you didn’t feel the same.

j.e.b. (( the dust still gathers here. ))
