I didn't think far enough ahead...

I didn't get much writing done...

I did get to see beautiful

But I paid the consequences..

Can anyone say heat exhaustion??

i was floating on an avenue.
it was the one night i thought i could give myself away and i wasn't sure how i was going to make it home, but i set out in that direction anyway.
you never called to see if i made it home.
i rarely looked up from the sidewalk, for fear of drifting away.
you never liked the sound of my laughing. you said it was ugly. you said tonight you wanted peace. and so i walked alone, drunk off of whatever you gave me.
