There was nothing

I was standing in the parking lot.

The laughter of my sister echoing in the abyss of the night.

I remember looking at you.

Analyzing the way your face changed

The way your eyes wavered when they fell on me

There was nothing

It was that moment I knew you would never look at me the same way.

I will never bury my head in your neck

I will never kiss your forehead and tell you goodnight

Buy you flowers and settle down from the chaos of the living realm.

My sunlight that I cannot hold,

A living being that craves life like its own,
