when you left my house i felt alright. the evening was fine. sun on my back. we were parting paths, my school in sight. i lost myself in the months that follow. i saw your face in other peoples’ face. sunbathing on my raft at sea. sunglasses black out the sharks around me. i’m sunburnt no one can touch me. come christmas break i saw you again, it was my mistake. suicide pact with our ring fingers. ‘till death will i stay. later that year i took my promise back. turns out that i’d leave so much sooner than that. littlest shark says to the big shark, “how do we get ourselves in these situations killing cops and causing panic?” big shark turns around goes, “you’re the brainiac, just figure it out man. it’s what we’ve done, what we’re doing, what we’re gonna do. sunbathing on my roof in the nude. sunglasses black out the flames around me. i’m burning, someone please touch me.
