all the faded nights

i stay up and wait

until the night dies.

 

i've made it a habit

to learn every part of the house.

 

i drink water,

i scribble words onto pieces of paper

lying on the floor.

 

i wander my own house

like it's a new city.

 

familiarity feels like a curse.

 

i fall into my bed

and my eyes drift to the window.

 

it's still night.

 

i wonder if morning's ever going to come.
