i just wish there weren't
so many reminders.
i can't listen to love songs.
i can't watch jurassic park, or
slumdog millionaire, or any
foreign films, or anything
R rated.
i can't hear about things that
happen in portland, or
people's camping outings, or listen to
tegan & sara
the yeah yeah yeahs
empire of the sun, or
so many other artists.
you really did slither your way
into every single part of my life,
& i literally can't get you out.
i know it's only been 10 days,
but you're like a nasty,
permeating
stain that's been festering for
days, even months,
and i'm desperately trying to get it out,
using every method i can think of.
but for some reason,
you're stubborn, & you
refuse to come out.
you just won't leave me alone,
will you.
