i miss you i wish you
would just come home
come home whole
i'm starting to forget the way you smell,
but the color of your eyes will be in me forever.
I have to control myself. put down the phone, put down the food, put down the knife. I feel ugly without you here to see me. the night is long, the night is long and I'm so terribly frightened.
every scenario that could break my heart has
happened in my head a thousand times
I'm too petrified to knock on wood
the bee sting of my horrors
will mark my skin forever
but I don't care, I just want you home.
I love you. I can't let you die.
but I don't know how to save a silent telephone.
trying hard to stay sane,
staying crazy for you
everything is so hard to ignore when you're worried.
please, just tell me you're okay.

in lighter news, today my brother said "I think I have the vapors!" in a southern belle accent. it was good.
