3:59 am



I might dye my hair blonde
to bleach away the memories of us
I might start that same brand of concealer you talked about
to cover up the sleepless nights
I might make a new playlist
to disregard our favourite songs
I might even find someone new
to forget that is what you did
shortly after we called it quits
