I think one of the worst things is being attached to something that does not belong to you
because you know that eventually it will go away
and you will never be prepared for its departure
so when its comes it sudden
and it stings.the absence of a presence is where the wild things are
where they manifest itself into our lives.we are those white roses in alice in wonderland painted red
as a disguise
we hide how we feel due to lack of judgment to determine what is real.if its real its concrete you can touch it that has been drilled into our skulls
and we assimilate
and insinuate that maybe this is true
maybe red is not the opposing color you visualize instead of blue.and no you cant just do that
leave whenever you feel like it and come right back
because you will not be there waiting for me with open arms
feelings calm down it was just a false alarm.I thought we really meant something
but I guess "you know I got you is" code for you mean nothingbut yes you got me exactly where you want me to be desperate, casting behind memes and laughter this was a disasterbut to be quite frank it could have never happened any faster//E.B.
