Collapsing.
Thats the only thing he could focus on. That one word.
Collapsing.
He tried to distract himself, anything to distract himself, but nothing could stop his thoughts.
His chest, his skull, his shoulders. caving in on themselves. His bones were brittle chalk, shattering and piling in his stomach.
He choked, sobbing.
The time josh brought him sidewalk chalk and they lay on the ground. Colorful swirls. Sunsets. Gentle tears. Laughing until his chest ached.
Josh.
Everyone was gone. The memories that used to make him smile were now black and blue and raindrops.
Josh liked the rain. Josh had kissed him in the rain.
Crush. Went his chest.
Collapsing.
