if we were made of water, the salt would kill us.
we would drown with it in our lungs, and we'd beg God, saying
sorry
sorry
sorry
for thinking that we could control the ocean and the skies.
if we were made of water, maybe none of this would've happened. maybe we would've seen this coming.
maybe we wouldn't be here saying
sorry
sorry
sorry
for something we did,
something I did,
but can't remember

Morose ✔️
When you experience the worst thing you could ever imagine, how do you react? - "The water looked so tempting under me as I stood there in the dark. The splashing sounds as the waves hit the stone calmed me down and I took a deep breath. Yes. This was it. I closed my eyes and took one step closer, feeling the curb under the soles of my shoes when I stopped again. Then my heart started pounding when I heard the sound of an angry engine behind me, a screech and a crash. I turned around, gasping, ready to pick my phone up from the ground to call for help- but what met me was a pair of soul-searching golden eyes. In all his twisted glory, he stood in front of me, his precious motorcycle's engine still going as it laid on the ground behind him. His hand reached out, as if asking me to wait, but neither of us said anything. We just stood there." - Olivia was a happy, cheerful girl whose life turned upside down one evening, over a phone call.
