when you're with her-
i feel like a ghost.
like i can stand in front of you
and wave my hands
up
and
down
and all you see is a shadow-
a shadow that means nothing and feels
nothing
and therefore is not at all worth talking with.
but sometimes the shadow is the one
you have to go to.
it is the only thing that shades your face
and hides you for no one else to see.
they teach you
to live
and to lie
and to tough it up.
and then the sun comes out.
