A word broke the silence. a promise broke the calm. and everything clouded since then. a black cloud over my head, all day. felt cursed, came home late, dirtied my shoes, stepped on the ashes. dried my eyes, made them red. took all my lives out of my pockets. gathered my memories, gave you my stories, and it wasn't enough. my intention wasn't sufficient. if you were here. maybe none of this would be happening.
