sticky (Patreon)

I’ve been wearing the same lipstick for 10 years
Wearing the same perfume for close to 20
My hair gets tied up in a bun with the same twists and turns every time 
I still chew the same flavor of gum I always have

I’ve never deleted my text messages 
I’ve saved years of voicemails from those I love 
I still have all of my old iPhone backups 
My phone number hasn’t changed since I got it in the sixth grade 
And it never will 

No wonder I can’t see a world 
Where I could truly let you go
