(currently listening to Cellophane by FKA twigs)
Last night after work i went to the river
Like usual
listening to some music and letting my mind run free for a bit
the air had my eyes
the rush of the river was loud
I sat on a rock, rustling stones beneath my feet
A slight chill went through me, one I was willing to sit through
But last night was when I decided to have a good cry
one where I sat and let tears drop near where they’re supposed to be
Then watching a herd of ducks come along the river
Poking their heads into the water
Tails to the sky
Watching them though
Set off what I should be grateful for
Reminiscing family
hating myself for not spending time with them
I’m sorry I didn’t watch tv with you that night
Of course I was busy doing nothing in my room
God I just wanna pour out everything and tell them how sorry I am, everyone
This song
kept asking “didn’t I do it for you?”
“why won’t I do it for you?”
with such soft piano chords that felt heavy and light at the same time
I wish I could say it helped
Eventually I stopped, caught my breath
Swiped my windows
may have been a few nights ago but aye
