(no subject)
I can't turn off the TV.
I can't turn off the music.
The lights.
The car.
The cigarettes.
The drinking.
The regrets.
The only things I can turn off lately are
My conscience.
My morals.
My ambition.
My self-respect.
My dignity.
The things I want to turn off are
The stupidity.
The thoughts.
The despair.
The mistakes.
The phone.
With your number.
Your name.
Your touch.
Your smell.
Your taste.
Your promises.
Your lies.
Your memory.
And my memory
of us.
I can't turn off the music.
The lights.
The car.
The cigarettes.
The drinking.
The regrets.
The only things I can turn off lately are
My conscience.
My morals.
My ambition.
My self-respect.
My dignity.
The things I want to turn off are
The stupidity.
The thoughts.
The despair.
The mistakes.
The phone.
With your number.
Your name.
Your touch.
Your smell.
Your taste.
Your promises.
Your lies.
Your memory.
And my memory
of us.
