Author has more inspiration for poems about characters in the story than the actual story. Go figure. I've got the first half to the next chapter done, but this is really helping my brain work. Updates may slow down soon, though, since I start a new job Monday.


The bottle is empty. Open the next. Don't stop pouring, help me forget.

I'll dance

I'll sing

I'll prance around

I'll be the coolest girl in town.

Don't make me let go.

This sea of tears is all around.

Every time I drown.

She waited for me when I got home. Her eyes are pink, they always glow. She's mad at me, she's mad at him. She's mad she ever let him in.

Stop going out.

You're killing yourself.

I grumble.

Mumble.

I've run out of steam. I'll care in a year.

Stop going out.

You're killing yourself.

Every time I drown

The cup is empty. Pour another. Do I hate him more or the brothers? Stop looking at me, I'm not in the mood. Stop talking to me. I'm not into you, dude.

She's behind me now.

It's been three days!

Stop going out!

You're wasting away!

Don't make me let go

This sea of tears is all around

Every time I drown

Blue sister is here. She's angry at her. She won't let us out until we're better again.

Angry.

Angry.

Everyday.

She's mad at her. She's mad at him. She mad she ever let them in.

I need it.

Just one more time.

It can't kill me.

I wish it would...

Don't make me let go

This sea of tears is all around

Every time I drown

No more.

The bottle's empty.

I just need a little.

Open the next.

You're done.

Don't make me let go.

Just a little. Just one more time.

This sea of tears is all around.

It's bad for you.

I've run out of steam.

It won't kill me.

I'll care in a year.

It could've.

I wish it would.

Every time I drown.
