my ceiling (becoming permanent)

two versions.

v1 (my ceiling)

the first day that i was away from you
i lay in my bed wide awake
at 3 in the morning
and found outlines of your face
and body
embedded in the ceiling

v2 (becoming permanent)

the first time that i hung up on you
i lay in my bed
wide awake at two in the morning
and found traces of you;
things like your smile
outlines of your face
already finding their place
embedding themselves in the cracks of my ceiling

i called you back
