Occasion

The longing will not fade. It only grows. My heart is dying inside my chest. It is rotting inside me, hollowing me out.

Clutching my chest, my knees hit the floor. Every breath a struggle. Pain rips through my body. Blood seeps from my lips.

Darkness enters.

Night

This loneliness is unbearable. The day rolls into night then back into day but it only gets worse. The darkness surrounds me, crowding me, pressing me, choking me. I scream for help but no one hears. No one wants to hear. I am alone.

Dying.

Slowly.

Random Call

Wow. Thank you so much. I have never felt so loved. My friend, you floor me.

Safe

Shake. Rattle. Thank God for no roll.

Tire exploded on the highway. This is my night now.

Change

Everyone keeps calling me Steve and I find it so weird.

Goat

Screw honesty. Some things are better left unsaid. My foot is most at home solidly lodged in my mouth.

Irresistible

Standing here next to you and all I want to do is kiss you.
