THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS WERE HARD ON BILLIE. She had had her lows, but she had never been this low. It had never been this bad. She felt like she was drowning.

She got up that morning feeling drained and empty. Like it was existential suffering.

She slowly got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. She looked at her reflection looking back at her in the mirror. She saw a weak, ugly, tired girl looking back at her. She decided to go for a shower. She slowly undressed and looked at herself in the mirror once again. She hated looking at herself naked. She felt disgusting.

She took one foot into the shower and the steaming hot water hit her skin. It was very hot, the type of hot that will make your skin red after showering. She liked the pain it gave her. She didn't know why, it just gave her a sense of comfort.

As she showered she did a lot of thinking. She didn't know if she actually loved Carl. Or it was just the heat of the moment. She thought it was too quick after Q. Because Billie knew she was in love with him, but, maybe Q wasn't in love with her. All she knew is that she liked Carl, but she knew, he didn't like her the way she liked him.

She got out of she shower, dried her hair, and threw on a baggy long sleeve band shirt with baggy sweat shorts.

She didn't feel like doing much that day, due to her lack of energy and motivation, but one thing she wanted to do was write. She had so much to say but no way to say it, and the only way she could say it, was through writing.

She went and sat at her studio, already with an idea in her head. She put some melodies and beats together. Sounding like, when there's no hope left. The sound of hopelessness.

She began writing how she felt.

Take me, to the rooftop

I wanna see, the world when I stop breathing

Turning blue

She wrote as she poured out what she's been feeling the past few days.

Tell me, love is endless

Don't be so pretentious

Leave me, like you do

She wrote from the memory of her and Carl.

If you need me

Wanna see me

Better hurry

Cause I'm leaving soon

She wrote as she felt her heart ease a bit. She felt as if she wrote them down and said what she was feeling, it would stop her from doing what she was feeling. But in the end, she knew it would come back eventually.

Sorry can't save me now

Sorry I don't know how

Sorry there's no way out

But down

Down

She kept writing as tears fell down from her cheeks onto the notebook. Smudging the writing she had done.

Taste me, the salty tears on my cheek

That's what a year long headache

She sobbed.

Does to you

I'm not okay

I feel so scattered
