How far can do we have to go?
I passed 20 miles back that way.
You’re taunting me again.
How can I look for a fresh start with you breathing down my neck?
I gave myself an ultimatum.
This was the last I would ever be able to breathe around you.
But you smell like oxygen.
And I smell like smoke.
Unfortunately oxygen only ignites the fire.
It hurts me to go back.
I think I’ll turn around to the 20 mile mark.
Fuck the new fresh start.
