Heavy

Stitches on my mouth
my hand over it, with a painted on smile
silica packets sewn into my tear ducts
the world is perfect, there's nothing wrong
I'll promise to keep you close, as I isolate within
why is love and connection so beautiful...
and so damn painful all at the same time?
The lights are fading, we're all home though
I'm drowning in memories, there's so much I want to say...three words are all that's needed
It's all I have left (and it hurts so badly, so, so badly)
