I lay in my bed I watch the ceiling.
I close my eyes.
I replay everything from the day I met you to the second time you left me.
Tears slowly fall.
I'm writing this to you, like you'd actually read it.
You don't though.
I slowly fall into a dreamless sleep.
But right before I close my eyes.
My mind speaks.
Soft whispers.
"Let's go. Leave them. Forget them." Then I have a dream about what could have been. Or what could be if I leave. If I go away. How much better everyone's lives would be.
He wouldn't have to see me. I could just Die off somewhere.
He wouldn't have to see me ever again.
Then my mind speaks again.
"Leave Them. Forget Them. Run away."
I just let those thoughts consume me. and I fall to sleep. No more me?
Everyone will be happy. But also worried....
