i heard a song

and it forced me to form

new memories

about you,

even though you weren't there.

i fell asleep

without a pillow

under my head,

listening

to the echoes of the words

you never said.

i can see your footsteps

in the snow

leading away from my heart,

blood

dripping from your hands,

though you'd never know.

i fell asleep with my head

on one hand,

and a pen in the other,

and awoke to the stutter

of a music long forgotten.

so much time.so little to do.
