I took him to the river and said “let’s watch something drown, ” So he took a stoneand I took my necklaceand we threw it all together, the way I always think I will get better in July. Things will change and sounds won’t acheand I gave my heart to uncertainty so many times, and so I took him to the river, threw the necklace in the river to slowly watch it drown, or burn, or fade awaylike I’ve done so many times.

About This Quote

I took him to the river and said “let’s watch something drown,” So he took a stoneand I took my necklaceand we threw it all together,the way I always think I will get better in July. Things will change and sounds won’t acheand I gave my heart to uncertainty so many times, and so I took him to the river,threw the necklace in the river to slowly watch it drown, or burn, or fade awaylike I’ve done so many times. And I hoped that he would take it backand say that things will get better some day, but they didn’t. He just stood thereamongst the shoreline with his eyes on me while the water driftedup around his feet.

And I thought that maybe it had never been his to begin withor that if it was then that made me a thief. And then he said “I return what is mine…but you can keep your necklace.'
