Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back

time is

nothing but a universal joke.

I’ve always been more prose than

poetry

Our fairytale

is in the details

Heartache is just another contagious disease.

SIDE B
The remixes.

And the rest can be so good
that you begin to call it the beginning.
Currently listening to:
“Settling Down” by Miranda Lambert
You have reached
the end of Side A.

Because when one thing stops,
the rest doesn’t.

There is a lesson found
in all your days,
even hidden in the
worst ones of your life.
Carry on, carry on.
Currently listening to:
“Let It Matter” by Johnnyswim

Better go back and check.
There will always be things to fix,
to obsess over.
The worries are infinite;
the days are finite.
This life.
This world as you know it right now,
filled with the people you love,
will be gone one day.
So, when you feel the sadness lingering,
remember not every guiding light
will glow bright.

Did I leave the stove on?
Did I blow out that candle?
Did I lock the door?
