"I'm up in the woods, I'm down on my mind. I'm building a sill to slow down the time."

Summer's almost over

and here I am, now sober.

All I want is to get over

from the fact we are over.

The songs we used to sing,

your voice is still lingering

Lying in bed, wondering

can we go back to the beginning?

I know it's pathetic

to be overly dramatic

over someone who used to be stoic,

now nothing but static.

Hush now, and try to sleep.

Maybe a little escape could the trick.

Sink in the unconscious thoughts so deep,

just one more hit then flick.

A "poem" written in a span of 5 minutes after re-reading my She & Him Series. God, I miss writing worthless, melancholic shenanigans.
