computer my only friend, never felt more alone,

as emotionally dependent as me? - only my clone,

and that's the simple truth, like how my dermis itches with depression,

so easy to ball my eyes out - no interest in exercise, film or an electrifying skate session,

nothing, silence similar to the burial of a destitute peasant,

nothing, silence similar to the noise that emanates from tears rolling down my cheek,

nothing, silence similar to how the strong and popular view the unpopular and weak,

nothing, silence similar to those who have professed to care,

nothing, silence similar to the conversations between follicles of my hair,

nothing, silence similar to...

nothing,

like the imaginary blood that squirts from my imaginary slit wrist,

like the ghosts that choose to remain unnoticed,

like the next few sentences i don't write,

like the love swirling in my apartment tonight,
