these are my last memories of you.
intermittent hammering against hard rock.
we, trapped in a cottony globe
me, trying to find touchy subjects to breach
only to mimic a feeling of closeness;
you, 
jogging backwards,
you,
jogging backwards, 
telling me not to turn my back on the ocean.

and us, in these last days of summer and youth,
reliving old habits
and continuing old processes,
just to be broken;
forgotten;
misplaced.

it is on such nights that time is absurd
but painfully, painfully relevant.
and it's on these nights that breathing is nothing,
and nothing is forgettable,
so i forgot to breathe all night.

hammering memories, creating repetition:
i am weary of this hard rock.
