unning Out

Tick, tick—

The watch won’t slow.

Through winding paths,

Through whispers low.

“Not much time, not much time,”

White fur flashes, desperate, wild.

Hands too frail to stop the clock,

A boy, a friend, still just a child.

“Follow me, we’ll change the tale,

No more endings, no goodbyes.”

But stories bend, not break,

And time still flickers in his eyes.

A final breath, a fi...

I went to bed last night

As I always do

But when I awoke

Something felt off

I could feel it from my bones

I could taste it in the air

But I couldn’t quite place it

Something was definitely off

Something big...

You said that you had a new girl

I you wanted to show her to me

We arranged a double date

For her and you

Me and my plus one

But as soon as you walked in the door

I know that I recognize her

I just didn’t know from where

The it hit me

She was my old friend

She stabbed me in the back

She took everything with her

I spent the rest of the night in that bathroom

Alone...

That was our song

Me and you

You and me

But then you left

Now it’s just my sibg

My sad

Sad song...
