i know you think of me
different memories
same result

automatic sadness
the pressure of a convenient life
feeling empty
and running out of space
to cram in more joy

sudden unreality
the struggle of a real life
being full
even when hungry

her sneaky look
is an undetermined secret
her snarky voice

i have crossed a line
i wouldn't have even known
unless someone could point it out for me
i'm feeling sadness built upon sadness
weakening shoulders
