echoes on repeat

the silence between us

echoes on repeat

sterile

unmoved

my ghost holds her breath

lungs fill with stale air

you continue on your way

both terrible people

standing three feet away

letting our light fade into the darkness

pushing back skeletons

finding another human rotting inside

faithful to such a vacuum

echoes on repeat

disgusted by the lack of your voice

two types of banged up people

echoes on repeat

skipping to a connected beat

suspended in salty water

coldness expanding in silence

now

it's time for bed

where you loan me your heat

echoes on repeat

jusr enough to keep me from freezing
