it's been four,
five,
six hours.
i still can't sleep.
his words echo in my head.
i can't cry.
i've cried myself out of tears.
i can't eat.
how can i? i know he's gone for good.
i can't even feel anymore.
just a stinging sort of loss,
but no feeling.
i need to sleep.
i need to forget this.
i need to forget him.
i don't want to stay conscious anymore.
