"i have an issue with this generation, my generation.
hiding ourselves, hiding our feelings behind screens.
lack of honesty between individuals,
because we are protected by the rectangles we hold so close to our hearts.
this is why we struggle with the face to face.
this is why our mind carries itself away.
this is why our feelings are bottled up.
because they contained in the electrical void.
how do i know this?
because i am part of the problem,
we all are." - glowing screens // fading hearts.

how am i unlike them?
why do i need to be different to them?
i wonder...
am i the first girl you have uttered this to? - we are incomparable because we are one.

"let's get drunk on the air of the midnight sky
running down the streets that we grew up in
laughing
reminiscing
loving
just us two." - because we are young.

"your words laced the glass of your lips
and i drank up the poison of your voice." - bewitched.
