Seen on TV

Maybe it's because I'm a child of television. When I'm going out with someone, I'll sometimes think of an actress she resembles. Or further on, I'll see an actress that reminds me of her in some way. I don't want to make that connection. It just happens.

This is all right when things are on the ups, but if/when that relationship crashes, it can make it tougher to watch that doppelganger actress if she's in a movie or a show you're watching. Especially if she's in a show that you quite like. You're trying to forget this face and it won't go away.

Everything fades in time. Some things linger longer.

Sometimes you think it's gone and it's still there. The crack inside your fucking heart.
