the library send board sends postcards when borrowed books have been overdue for 2 weeks

"i'm walking on clouds, of white. what if i fall;
what if i don't?"
:citadel - anna nalick

i remember you and i remember and i remember i remember you
i remember you, do you remember me? there were sparkles of sunshine,
all full of joy, hope, each as excruciatingly uplifting as the next.
now there is almost nothing and i am holding on by a thread

i look at people and i don't see them i am too busy holding in sneezes
i held my hand to feel if it was nice to hold, to see if anyone would ever love me
i hold my breath when i walk past fruit stalls
i stare transfixed at fashion shows i can never be one of them i know

i do actually know that not everything is about me, that nothing is about me
it is just that i do not know what to say, i do not actually even know what to say.
