Astoria what are you doing here singing giving in to sickness when I’m just lying here

I don’t want to hear the guitar’s mournful cry echoing in the night as the response drips into the rippling emptiness

Trying to focus on something other than the joke that is my life

I went all the way to his house and he gave me one look and said

Ew

Go away

In the nicest way possible

If there was a sickness to give in to I would have done so on my way home with the man whispering obscenities on the bus

My mind wants to find solace in the

The something in the guitar

I remind it soberly drunkly that there is nothing for us there just as everywhere I have looked

Phantoms

Aka

This is what it’s like to have an ugly useless bitch in love with you

I’m sure

The whispering stopped being whispering when I heard him say it

Can’t let this ruin it

Can’t let this make any difference

What this?

This that is and always has been the theme of my life?

Am I pretty?

No.

Am I worth it?

No.

Is there any point to this besides the misery I’m sure whatever is this universe feeds on to exist

Perhaps it will finally fucking die when those within it are happy

The last sad thing will be like

Ah yes, I am at peace

And

Insert universe reverse noise here

Because that is the only fate I can see in a reality with the rules I’ve seen

As soon as anything seems to be going right

It’s a fucking lie

Or it’s a precursor to something worse

There is no inbetween

No good

Just a fucking hell hole I wish would collapse in on itself and be fucking done with it already.
