i can't fight with you anymore.

you used to overheat me,

the anger vibrating through my skin

so warm, so insistent,

that my face felt like it was buzzing

like it was being pelted by a rain

of frustration

and anger

and anger

and anger


but i've given up.

when it rains every day,

you learn to stay inside.

the drops of liquid emotion on your skin

aren't worth the effort to dry off.


i don't think you've noticed

but we aren't fighting anymore.

it's always raining on you,

but i've kept our things

inside.
