Sap

The fact that it only takes a couple of hours for me to get lonely and desperate when you're not around is a testament to the fact that I can't survive without you. I've fearlessly built everything I am around everything you are, without you I'm a bicycle without wheels. Time drags, the clock takes hours to move minutes along. I hear happy voices outside my door and curse their very existence only because they have what I don't- a reason to face another day. Although I've felt the sun rise with a promise instead of a do or die ultimatum every day over the past five years, I seem to quiver and die when I'm alone, as if the collection of ropes and pulleys that pull that sun up are dependant on your proximity.

It's nighttime right now, but I know you'll be back and the sun will rise again.
