He hates small talk. He likes to sleep and avoid the reality
in contemporary displacement. He’s tired of me worrying about him and tells me
he does not care. An internal struggle battling his demons with evident
exhaustion through his eyes. On good days he is yellow like his rain jacket. He
likes in-depth conversations and postulates existence. We walk under grey clouds
and attempt to understand each other’s problems. His words wrap around me like
a warm blanket offering solace as the harsh wind try to force me down into the
earth. He becomes attractive and shows a genuine smile like yesterday never
happened. He says he loves me. Then it is the next day but he is still
pretending like yesterday never happened. He pretends like we never happened.
We immediately become distant.
A sense of pain spikes from my chest like daggers
penetrating it over and over again, nonstop. Betrayal. Inconsolable longing. I
lose track of how many days passed by. They say time will heal but I am
stubborn. I try to open my mouth but his facial expression darkens. He doesn’t
tell me to change when I apologize. He never seems to know what he wants
besides the one I dread. As if the labyrinth inside his mind reached a dead
end. More days pass. Not a single one goes without the thought of him.
I hate empty promises. I like to show affection and reassure the purpose of existence is unique. I am tired of his third person narrative and tell him to let me through the wall. A soft echo resonating in a vacant room with no gateway. On bad days I am grey like those clouds. I hate the abrupt instability and the revelation of hazy navigation. We sit on carpeted floors and I tell him my secrets. Both saying words but not saying enough. His fixates his gaze on mine almost catching me off guard and a strange feeling emerges inside of me. I become hesitant and trip on words. Shapes traced on the carpet. Finally some self-complacent after a long
and weary toil. Head on chest and a close
embrace like last time. Two more time. Then it is the next day. And once again he is pretending like yesterday never happened. He pretends like we never happened. We are almost like strangers. He is upbeat and animated and becomes a jouster. radiate
resentment and sheer annoyance. I become a bubble
Eye contact still made across the room.
Eye contact still made across the room.
Avoidance - > unexpected night
Lab report
