on the first day,

i watched the sun rise

and i danced where i used to mourn.

on the second day,

i was light on my feet,

my body a feather.

on the third day,

i was tired

and i had no energy to walk out the door.

on the fourth day, 

my eyes lose color

and my lips crack and fade.

on the fifth day,

my head rests

and my body becomes motionless.

on the sixth day,

i eat the glass of my shattered love

and i drink the memories we have together.

on the seventh day,

i see you walking down the street

and i get drunk on broken down deja vu.

i broke my arms

to reach for you.
