cool kids

iii.

today was... weird.

we had talked on the phone all night, that is until my little brother and sister ran in and started screaming through the phone. i thought you would be annoyed but you weren't; you actually talked to them. then after they left we texted for most of the night.

now today, you didn't look at me, you didn't smile at me. you just stayed silent... all day. i thought you were mad at me until i got these two messages on my phone:

the burdens on this chest
the vessel of these words
sinking under tension
drew afterthoughts and hurt.

and then:

please just look it up.

and i did, they were the ending lyrics to this song called flaws by vancouver sleep clinic. it was a beautiful song. a really, really beautiful song.
