i reach out for a soothing touch, and it is so but for so long. it eventually yanks itself back and i find myself falling again and i feel my throat drop to my stomach. i cannot stop throwing up the broken promises i breathed in from your lips like a cigarette. i once again, am so perplexed that i believed them. i seem to not be a quick learner.

i pretend that you are (still) with me at night. i then cry when i snap out of my dreams.

- i am made to be nothing but warmth beneath your sheets till summer comes again
