you've spent your whole life sweating in an endless fever
_laying in a bathtub full of freezing water, wishing you were a ghost_

Those arms with imaginary wings hold close around me & our lips touch like how they should. You tighten your embrace & for a moment, everything heartbreaking has atrophied. Your scent washes over my senses, your hand softly tracing the curves of my back, your lips grazing against my ear & the moment intensifies as I breathe in deeply. We're moving to the beat of speeding hearts.

Pull the trigger & the nightmare stops.

This is my trigger. [BANG.]
