English 30A [creative writing]

So my 2nd year of college has launched!
My creative writing professor had us do an assignment
called umm... "Stream of Conciousness"... I haven't read mine
because my voice is still gone... but i'd like to share it with you...
[it's kind of a rewrite on some old shit... sorry] ...hope you enjoy.


Tonight, I'll take my pen in my hand and attempt to
scribble the words to help you understand how much
I still care. You were everything to me, my lung. I stopped
breathing when you left. The first time was bearable...
BUT the second time... a bit more than i could handle. I
know it's in the past but I'm still broken. Tenaciously
holding the shattered pieces close. Letting go has always
been a hard pill for me to swallow. Zoloft and Xanex are
a bit easier to get down. After one or two, I've completely
forgotten my thoughts of you...Until the sun comes, no
matter where I hide it always seems to find me. Burning my
eyes staining my mind with thoughts of you. Suffocating me
in the scent of you.Everything reflective of you. True love finds
you once if you're lucky and i I let it slip through my fingers like
sand. Watched you bury me and walk away... In case you've
missed me, I'm still there.. right where you left me. Holding my
breath hoping we'll find a happy ending to our story someday.
