Before I Die;

6.

30/05

"would you come back if I bought sun cream?"

My room is always dark

because I don't like opening

the curtains. 

But unfortunately

unlike my room,

my head doesn't have

a switch to make

everything brighter.

Up until a year ago,

I searched and searched

for that switch in my head

because it would make everything better.

Eleven months ago,

I found you

and realized

my search was pointless

for I was searching in the wrong place.

Turns out 

the switch wasn't in my head.

When you were with me,

everything seemed better

and brighter.

You illuminated everything

like living on the sun.

You never burned me;

you said you wanted to protect me,

but you so easily walked away

when you discovered I couldn't 

pay the 

electricity bill.
