i've spent years trying to get away from you, to tear out this bind that connects me to you so deeply. i don't think i will ever recover from longing, this painful sort of devotion. i fear it may follow me for the rest of my life, long after you are no longer a part of it. i fear i'll be 30 and wondering where you are. i fear even more i'll be wishing you were beside me, still...
the payphone in hell
they say when you get to hell the devil allows you to make one phone call
he leads you down the stairs to a single payphone and you dial their number , slowly, preparing for the last time you will hear their voice . what will you say ? (what could you say ?) - your chest is pounding and you keep waiting for them to pick up - you keep waiting to hear their goddamn holy voice that could've (should've) once made you pray to god ; your chest pounds with excitement, longing , anticipation --
the phone rings
and rings
and here is where you spend eternity .
