This terrifies me so I have to do it

Open letter to Kristine flaherty

Thanks dude

You live in my head most mornings

I still remember the first time

You saved me

It was cold and wet and late in that state across the country

I was at this concert with people

I couldn’t escape

Memories surfaced

Loud gospel music playing

I felt that thing in me come alive

The one that tells me how easy it would be to

To carve a railroad track into my arm

And fade into nothing

Anyways i tried to get ahead of it

So I ran out and hit the bar

Double shot of whiskey

Then I put you in my ears and started walking

You let me leave this world for 3 minutes and 22 seconds

You told me chaos was okay

You were stuck in the muck with me

Thanks for that K

-love j
