One night they stood around and watched you drown, fascinated by your bubbles and encouraging you to blow bigger ones with the last of your breath
One night somewhere close yet far they slept peacefully while your tears stained the screen as you waited for a response
You had always wished for more yet less
One night they took everything from you say for the worst you had to offer and it made you feel as if you could never find balance again
One night somewhere close yet far they forgot to decide to never speak to you again, simply never doing it but unconsciously
You had always wished for what you deserved
