The Collapse

Don't go away. 

I never meant not to stay.

It's just that the noise has taken me

It's caught me in its dance.

I don't want to forget

But for now please let me

Not remember.
.

Just wait for me

Ready to feed me again

When I remember that I can't live

And starve

Like this

That I can't dance 

Hollow and thin

Forever.

When they've left me

Come back

I will be where I've always been

An incurable fool.

Because like me you know

That I can't live

With or without you.
