lm

tell the story of the girl who ruined the best thing that has ever happened to her. how every night she will go to bed and think about the life she could be living with the man who wants nothing to do with her. with the man who goes to bed every night grateful he is no longer with her. tell the story of how it feels to have somebody glad of your absence. the begging for indifference over this. anything over this

postcard

i've spent years trying to get away from you, to tear out this bind that connects me to you so deeply. i don't think i will ever recover from longing, this painful sort of devotion. i fear it may follow me for the rest of my life, long after you are no longer a part of it. i fear i'll be 30 and wondering where you are. i fear even more i'll be wishing you were beside me, still...

is when they pick up and ask where you're calling from

(was it ever any surprise?)

the payphone in hell ;

sometimes the line rings for an eternity

sometimes, however, the line crackles through

and you get to hear the sound of them saying they don't love you anymore play until your ears bleed
