This is the one

This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
--the Stone Roses


I want water to come and inundate this body, clear away the smut and residue of past pain and regret.

Apologetically, assuagingly, he said I love you. Bitter tones of lost delight.

I don't want to be the apology. I don't want to be the blockade to desired pleasures. I want to be the world. The angel that makes time stop.

Loneliness drives people into unmade beds, into areas that were never home and could never be home. Desperation makes you the person you never wanted to be.

Time to get out of the cess pool. To get out of the shit before you become shit.

Hold your head above it; plug your nose if you can.

Breathe again.
