Silence woke me from my sleep.These awkward bubbles of nothing in the morning just before the alarm clock rings and everything starts making this horrible kind of crystal clear sense again.
My cold legs begin dragging my comatic body to the bathroom,where the last layers of my narcotic haze gets scratched off my twitching eyes as I wake,blinded by the sterile white of the bathroom tiles as gravity kicks the door in like an unwelcome friend.

Phantom sparks of familiar feelings rush through my body,the faint memory of a dream,and I try to remember,but it's gone...I'm alone,and it feels good at first...but then,this thorn in the back of my brain makes me think about you.This love is dead and rotting,turning into a tumor in my head,feeding on my pain,becoming bigger and blacker,poisoning the air around me with it's stale stench.

I have to catch the bus...

Grey crowds of people trap me like old,dusty statues swaying in the bus.
They're pushing me around,accidentally touching me and I'm desperate enough to imagine that it's your warm body that presses against me,but I'm sane enough to remind myself that you're not there.

Shit head.

A second of clarity returns to me memories of how our bodies turned into rivers of gold every time we touched,merging to the one,the complete answer to the constant pain of being alive - the memory of it,so overwhelming,it blinds my inner vision.

My mind wanders through a deep mist of thoughts,haunting one another until they dematerialize in a calming vacuum of apathy.I walk through the ashes of what once was logic and reason.My mind has crumbled under your steps,and the remains still soar around you in circles,like satellites,bathing in the thought of your existence...

The drugs should help it,but they never do.
I'm too weak to remember.
I'm too afraid to forget.

The only critique that I have is:

"Silence.I heard it in my sleep,these awkward bubbles of silence in the morning just before the alarm clock rings and everything starts making this horrible kind of crystal clear sense again."


in the second sentence, maybe change the word silence to something else. You used it once right before and it sound funny being repeated like that. I do that a lot too. :shrug:

The story is good. i like it.

"It is better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all."

-Alfred Lord Tennyson
:iconspeedyard:
Excellent. I love these kinds of stories: short but powerful. You have a great use of words. I always like to see more complex words used. The ultimate meaning of the story is great as well. This is decidely a very good story.

One thing: I think it would be better to put spaces between commas and the words that come after them.

I really do like this and I always have liked your writing because I can nearly always put myself in your place because most times I've been there too. So this one really drives home because I've known what all of that feels like.

I most like the line:
"I wish I could cause earthquakes so the stones would fall apart."
Among other ones.

Don't ever doubt your writing because it's amazing!!! ^_^
