VOICE POST ACTIVATED
[the winds blowing, a sigh and then a low voice]
The panic begins
I searched the whole damn apartment from ceiling to carpet
No sign of the things she used to own
As autumn turns its back on me again
I climb the walls for oxygen
My body aches, it heaves, it shakes
All summer sounds so caught up
And I still don't know exactly who I am
I never will, amen.
She whispers something in my ear, the message is unclear
She motions outside.
I trail her closely from behind
She tries hard not to cry
She shakes underneath the pouring rain
I can't compete with all your damn ideas
This isn't working out for you and me
The truth is I'm too tired to play pretend
This is goodbye, this is the end.
[silence and then a click]
