If you’ve ever wondered what loneliness is,
it is 2 am it’s listening to my heart beat & wondering if it will ever be loud enough to swallow the sound of him leaving it’s pondering the difference between sinking and drowning & realising that I am doing both: my lungs are overflowing yet still I’m gorging myself it’s being too tired to write about loss If you’ve ever wondered, being lonely is like taking a shot of salt water it’s eating sunflower seeds just to stay warm it’s imitating his touch with my hands it’s the way red lipstick fades when no one bothers to kiss it off
