deb
hang
up
the
phone
withered
smile
upon
these
lips
-
i
can't
hold
out
anymore
i
crumble
to
the
countertop
while
the
kitten
gazes
up
and
a
sliver
of
what's
been
sealed
within
slips
to
the
surface
but
i'm
not
allowed
to
cry
i'm
stronger
than
that
~
or
am
i
?
it
took
all
my
strength
this
morning
to
even
get
out
of
my
bed
-
i
could
curl
up
there
forever
i'm
so
tired
so
dreadfully
tired
but
sleep
eludes
me
as
easily
as
smiles
do
four
months
twelve
days
thirteen
hours
and
this
will
all
be
over
or
just
beginning
however
you
want
to
look
at
it
still
,
too
long
