i won't go back to when my days all overlapped. i won't go back to when my feelings were unsurpassed. i wont' go back. i don't want to keep living in my past.
i won't go back. no.
you came suddenly like a hurricane or a splinter. i felt like the rain was falling over. you laid your fragile bones by the shore, still breathing and safe. through the camera. in my last moments you were impaled by your answers. i don't want to forget, i just need to fucking quit. you left me standing here, knee deep in the atlantic, clinging to ghastly memories, lost in your shallows. and i will never change.
and when the sun came down, i didn't feel any different. and when the sun came down, i thought i left these ghosts buried in the ground.
we traced the cliffside as if we knew anything else. we held to each other like the grains of sand you so quickly gave away. i fingertip-toed your waistline searching for something deeper inside of us.
