I'm still getting used to having to settle, and I'm slowly getting there, but something just doesn't feel right. I'm not sure if it's these broken bones, or these broken things that you left here, but either way, I couldn't care less. 'Cause I'm content with this apartment on Matlock and Arbrook, and the Goodwill couch is always waiting. The bible beside the bed's pages keep falling out just to remind to me that even being faithful can hold you down. Two months ago I never would've known. The smoke clouds in the living room hold an overall background of hazy dreams, nostalgia, and uncertainty. This rooms full of it, and I can hardly breathe. But Jacob will be back tonight. He said around that time we'll find a soft spot when we're done talking about lost dreams and old memories. For now, I'll watch video game intros a thousand times, and semi-transparent glass around the lights casts growing shadows in my direction. They're all going dead. We're all going dead.
