I burnt every page, except the corner of the last one, last abstraction
Because every time you ended a thought, you pressed the ballpoint a bit too hard
Almost to the point where, the next page, inherited, the pain of the precedent
Your subtle ways a secret I have kept
You, on the other hand, have vanished
“Just because you’re around doesn’t mean that you’re around.”
