25 Forever

If I'm going to take the path of darkness, I should at least admire its beauty

I received various phone calls this girl. Let me call her, Kalas.

I was consuming poison, like I usually do. And my mind became muddled, and I traveled back in time to when I was 25. How many times do I have revisit that girl?

The one eyed cat shoppe in real time is falling apart. The windows are boarded up. Grafitti on the wall, and the occupants have long gone. I'm doing my own transactions at this point. Deducting from nothing. Every time, I think there isn't a track left, I find one more somewhere.

Tear drop shaped stones, another one i've found, the song begins to play from the stone, and its my favorite.

The song this time is "a million years" by the grassroots. I hold the stone and suddenly the rotting time capsule, becomes my favorite year. When I was happiest and when I saddest. My old demons are by my side.

I see Kalas has called me so many times, but I can't place the number...and then a text..."Hey, I miss you."

"Aww, I miss you too."

"Can me and my demons come over?"

"Yeah."

Everything is actually... good. We're talking. There's another beauty adding to our oasis. But then, an angry bee flies right by the window.
"Hold on, we'll be back. Stay with the children."

I'm there for a long time, I keep drinking. Oh no, these demons are angry w me.

"You stink"

"Ah yea, I stink when i drink"

"from top to bottom"

-"I'm on my period"– This person, she constantly tries to embarass me. Meanwhile, they haven't shared any candy w me since 7 am.

"We haven't had any either!" The mirage...

"Sometimes, you should just listen." I burned out from listening to that girl all night.
