I'll make you a tape

thousands of words lay entrapped on a quarter inch line of thread. The thread smells slightly, but has a glossy outer feel ignorant of its intent. It forms a canvas, sillouhetting only the basic human instincts.

We've crawled down this path before
slowly
slithering around simple a simple yes or no

Ciggerettes fill the air like a silent venom. Skin clings to an all too familiar carpet. we have the setting. the place. the time.

Theres still a chance.

The black shine aborbs my favorite hits. takes in twelve tracks not altogether foriegn. they have similarity ; purpose. they remind me of you.

Listen. The mute silence is beautiful. A tribute, for I no longer hear your breath spread over optical cables and sent within rounded packaging. I no longer bear witness to a smile escaping onto foreign vibrations and visualized.

I cant

See
Touch
Envelop
Press
Hold
you. not right now. A torturing response not open for debate.

I won't

Tell
Allow
Let
Linger
Envision
Taste another.

Make or break. Make or break. The thread tightens nervously.

I can't wait to listen.
