It's like a version of hide-and-seek... But we're not children... And there's no known rules... Or foreseeable end in sight. Because the person who's been doing all the searching... Is the same one still waiting to be found.

Unexpected
I swear you were just here... Warm and alive. Preparing for tomorrow... Not expecting to die.But now the bed is cold and the curtains have shut... Hiding the white linen sheets left stained in disgust.
2019
Summer 2019 is unforgettable to me... in Minneapolis where I always felt free. Friends with scooters and spilt milkshakes... tobacco shops and drunken mistakes. Uber drives in new-scented cars... with unlikely dives at classy gay bars. Cigarette butts and cold windy nights... hotel keys and blurred city lights. Crooked smiles and shitty leftovers... With a pancake house that fixed the hangovers.
Sullen
The disregarded details are what I remember... The sullen specifics I'd prefer to forget.
Infused
Those are alcohol infused words mixed with emotionally confused verbs. Nothing more... And nothing less.
Bullshit
I don't have to second guess or question what if... Because that sewage spewing from your mouth is nothing more than melodramatic, narcissistic, complete bullshit.
For You
No thoughts. No prayers. No hope. No remorse.
Headlights
Headlights mark another highway like mismatched string lights. Lines of solemn beams endlessly cascading together to form vibrant clusters against the skyline... Eventually becoming nothing but hazy blurs in the growing distance... Until consumed by darkness... And gone from sight.
Floored
Go ahead... Try to gain my attention through your sociopath facade... Because your knowledge of my favorite foods and movies... Leaves me speechless in awe. (Sarcasm) Okay I'll be honest... I'm actually left quite floored... That such a knowledgeable narcissist like you... Thinks I still give a fuck anymore.
Disassociated
Empty eyes staring blankly. Focused only on the disregarded imperfections on a painted plaster wall.
