turpentine.

Breathless, I will fall.

The air is hard to breathe as nuclear power reaks through the air, mixing with carbon monoxide and making it impossible to stay upright.  My legs are unsteady. I haven't seen the sun in days. Snow flows through the air us if it belongs there and melting as it touches searing hot pavement.

Set me free.

"She screams"  Save me from this nightmare. My heart doesn't make sense to me any longer. This new world is too foreign. The trees are losing color as fall becomes winter[too fast] for us to take any notice whether or not it's right. Only his face is familair to me, and even that has begun to fade. I feel as if I don't know him anymore. He used to smile for me, now his gaze strays past me. One day he'll forget my name.

I'll be baby.

He'll let his love for me slip off his tongue like turpentine. Baby, forget you ever knew me. It'll be easier that way. Maybe I'll miss him less. Maybe I'll be able to stop loving him sooner. We were a reflection of an ever changing light. It was bound to burn out in time. Shadows only last in one place for so long and by tomorrow he will no longer stand beside me.

His eyes have changed.

"Look at me" she yells to him, but he keeps walking away into his white washed world. Where he can hide and cry and suck down his love that once ruled his life. Snow takes over and builds impossible walls between us. Even if we wanted to go back their was no way to find each other.



"You were the dream worth living."

Idk, rubbish, i know.

He's fading, I'm fading, idk how to feel.

you can't blame someone for vanishing when they're already gone.
