Breathing

by Megan Aries - Not entered

I thought maybe today would be like any
other day. I heard your voice on the line,
a voice I know like my own,telling me 
that you love someone new. I did not
need to know her name was Leslie or that
she has long blond hair like me, you said
her eyes were blue, bluer than anything 
you've ever seen. I don't think I can
handle this at all. I thought I was doing 
okay, but I know now that everything was
shit. All the promises, all the everything.
And it just makes me realize that all the
things I'm doing today are fucking stupid.
I shouldn't be seeing that guy at work, he
cares so little about me I can see it in his
motions, and read it in his words.It seems like 
I'm always alone, never a kind word in sight
when I need it. Please take this off of me,
please say I'm gonna be okay.
