3. patient b dies, one of mine
4. patient b taken to morgue after family leaves
5. patient a's family wants to view the body, as new family members arrive from out of town
6. i volunteer to take them with a social worker and security
7. on the way to the morgue, social worker calls me by patient b's name

that felt strange.

your last breath was an exasperated sigh.

miss seuss.

you meant what you said and you said what you meant,
(an elephant's faithful one hundred percent.)



it takes a good friend to say what you said.
you aren't an elephant, but i know you'll pick up what i lay down.

minds race when you can't sleep.

time flies when you're trying to slow it down.
the more you untangle, the faster it comes and the more woven it all gets.
confusing memories and dreams gets the best of you.

come back down, 
stay grounded.

dear boy,

this is no motherfucking avicii song.

this is when you realise that actions speak louder than words.

out with the old, and in with the new.

we'll love again, but just not each other.

i will love you where it matters,
and i will love you when it counts.

hindsight.

you are not nearly quite the person i thought you were.

which is too bad for me, and too bad for you.
