it's like a shower, y'know?

what do you mean?

like
a broken shower
a tap that won't stop running
a leaky pipe

i don't understand.

you wouldn't
you've never been there
with your hands against the water
with your eyes blurred with it
with your fingers pressing tightly
to sew back up
the broken links

why does it sound so poetic
when you're so sad?

because to make it pretty
makes it so much easier to live with
i would rather a flower
grew between my eyes
than a skull and a cross
than the warning sign
'poison'
i would rather read
'petunia'
than
'poison'

why don't you try to get better?

do i look like i'm drowning?

only a little bit

exactly

sorry this is just where i'm gonna be emo
