The 365 Project Pt. II

and soon it was time
and i didn’t want to
let it go
but there it was
in the white room
with the drain on the floor

eventually
we’re all empty
dry hollow husks
depleted vessels
of memory

so i squeezed and
the drain did its job
and all i
wanted was to
tell you one more
thing but it was too late

and the doctor wasn’t
right his eyes wide
red and damp
showed me how
to make it nice and
neat but never happy

eventually
we’re all empty
dry hollow husks
depleted vessels
of memory
