On the bed, I see the shadow of my slow-turning fan on the ceiling.

Artefacts #1

Let me see you in this light.

The glass case, the blue sky from the window

And me. Just me. Hi again.

You're silent but i can see

Your face in mine and mine in your eyes

Like pale, luminous orbs in disguise.

And i swear i can hear you breathing

I swear on my life

I see the slightest mist,

the dullest fog.

Life projecting on the cool clear surface.

So I put my hands up

Let my palms rest upon the case

Hear your heart speed up, your breath hitch

I say, you'll break the glass, please don't shout.

And you whisper "please let me out."
