together we feel something that feels like

feeling sad in a calm and acceptable way

when we’re lying in bed


so i say things like,

"run runy fast little bitty buffalo-lo"

and

"did i turn the giant deadbolt that keeps other humans from getting into the apartment at night or did you"


then later maybe,

"i feel tired but i don’t want to fall asleep and i’m not sure why"


then when your breathing changes i say things like,

"i love you"

and

"i’m not sure if i want to continue being alive"
