Description
You cough my name
Unfocused eyes
And we both know the truth
Is that I pay far too much attention
to you.

It's been noted
Time and time
again
That your feelings for me
Are nothing more than
ordinary.

Yet I cling to this.

I watch you drown
in foreign tongues
I watch you scream
in silent films
I cling to the parts
that were special

You are failure
at its finest
and all I have
are these words to keep me busy.

But these words are mine.
And I hope they hit you
with the realization
and the force
that they were meant to.

I hope every cross and dot
hit so devastatingly close to home
that you've no choice
but to keep these conversations
in the distance.

So used and
monotone.
