ONCE MORE SHE WAKES UP AND SHE'S ALONE AGAIN

IT WILL FEEL EXACTLY LIKE SHE EXPECTS IT TO

THERE WERE SO MANY THINGS SHE COULD HAVE SAID

LIKE THE MACHINE SHE'S BOUGHT

AND COVERED HER HEART WITH GOLD

SHE PICKED THE FALLEN AND DRIED LEAVES UP OFF THE FLOOR IN SILENCE

THE WATER WAS RUNNING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION AGAIN

NEVER TO LEAVE WITHOUT PROMISING TO COME BACK

WILL SHE RETURN IT?

A DOOR OPENS, SHE DROPS SOMETHING, THE MOON REMAINS THE SAME

AND ON SHE GOES AGAIN, FROM HER HOME TO HER HOME

THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IS KNOWING HOW TO MAKE MOMENTS ETERNAL

A CURL OF COLD SMOKE ENTERING HER MOUTH

SHE ONLY WANTED TO BRUSH HER TEETH

BUT SHE WAS STILL THIRSTY

HOLDING HER BREATH, SHE QUIETLY CLOSED THE DOOR

ABOUT THE PLANETS AND THE STARS, ABOUT FALLING AND BEING HELD AND ABOUT BEING RELATED

CONQUERED

WHERE SHE MET AN ACTOR WHO PLAYS A DOCTOR ON TV

HER FAVOURITES REMAIN CASEY AND WARREN

SHE LATER CROSSED THAT SENTENCE OUT WITH A RED PEN

A TIME WILL COME WHEN SHE WILL BE ABLE TO LOOK AT ALL THIS FROM A DISTANCE

JUST LIKE PIRATES, SHE DID LIKE APPLE SAUCE

EATING CANDLELIGHT WITH A PURPLE SPOON

TWO DAYS LATER SHE FOUND A GLASS OF WINE UNDER THE BED

NOW THAT PEOPLE STARTED TO PAY ATTENTION AND QUESTION HER, SHE STARTED WONDERING HERSELF

LOOKING THE YEARS IN THE EYE

AND NEXT TO HER MAGAZINES A POST IT NOTE SAYING "WAKE UP"

SHE PRESSED PAUSE AND LEFT

A DAY WHEN SHE SHOULD HAVE JUST SAT ALL DAY IN THE ARMCHAIR
