day 177

We woke up together and I still remember his name. We watch the same sun set and the same moon pull our tides together. I have learned how to swim on my own. I have learned how to drown countless times and I still haven't grown accustomed to the salt in my eyes. Maybe there is still a lot for me to learn. Like how to not break hearts that aren't whole or even how to not piece back together hearts that I didn't need to break. I learn by pricking my fingers along your neck. There is a sweet warmth oozing from you when you are broken and I do not want to swim in it. I can't swim in it. I drown. The tides still don't know how to perfect their timing. We watch the same sun set. Sometimes we can't see the moon.
