loving has become harder and harder.
i remember loving my warm bed, my pillowy cats, and even you.
but now warmth leaves me with chills,
and petting my cats feels like spikes on my skin.
there’s a dull sensation in the back of my heart,
making me think I’ve loved before,
or maybe even been loved…
but as each day passes,
i lose even more grip on the tendrils of that strange feeling.
i don’t really know what keeps me here.
a prophecy manifested in my mind at 10 years old;
of relief, or darkness, and no pain.
i’m 6 years passed my expiration date,
with bones that move purely out of memory,
and every day I wake up with the wonder of how I’ve made it this far.
but the more I think about it,
I haven’t.
And i won’t.
