I keep playing this song
it reminds me of January
it reminds me of being sad on Christmas,
and how I kept saying,
"you can't be sad, it's Christmas!"
It reminds me of that week I spent in my room
saying stupid things to people online
then regretting them later
It makes me of empty boxes
and how the toy shelf in my bedroom
quickly changed to a perfume shelf
over the course of a few birthdays.
It reminds me of now
sitting in my bed writing
when I really need sleep,
playing this song on repeat
