It's how pills that meant to bring numbness now only cause this shakiness that makes her hands look like branches in a monsoon where the world is upside down and trembling and yet those hands hold steady so many secrets shared in the cover of darkness where the padlocks rattle and Pandoras box opens but hope gets caught in the cobwebs because it never seems to have made it into this world the cars pass the moon still shines but it feels like nothing is the same and yet everything is as it has always been monochromatic and colorful at the same time and she wonders whether insanity tastes as good as the words you said that mark her skin branding themselves into the scarred tissue and that's when she realised that everyone's the same in the end sweet wrappers holding dirt and that she was foolish to ever think he was any different.
