January—I sat with my eyes wide open in the dark and listened to your fireworks.
February—I killed myself already.
March—I woke up to snow in my hospital bed.
April—three days have passed without any dreaming—we met.
May—I turned twenty-four and this was enough for you to be mad.
June—the machine guns and your playlist scared me to death.
July—skies were made from an illusionary surface.
August—the solar eclipse was as hostile as the universe.
September—you handed me blue cotton candy. “Doom times, honey.”
October—you said you’ve been visualizing my legs as they walk, “Because I like it when the Earth revolves.”
November—you’ve lost your speech, or your plane’s been hijacked.
December—I’m sitting in the dark with my eyes open, mistaking the fluorescent lamps for spirit glows.
