She feels in italics and thinks in CAPITALS. ~Henry James


We’re endings without stories,
a bullet without a gun
Fire without oxygen,
a ten without a one

 

We were tossed into the sea
without a simple kickstart
We were perfect together,
not even competent apart

 

We could dive flawlessly
but we couldn’t tread water,
We could sink but we never could
hold each other’s breath under

 

We’re endings without stories
Can you remember us?
We never even started
we weren’t rooted in trust

 

We’re endings without stories,
a bullet without a gun
Fire without oxygen,
a ten without a one
