Zia

in her words

what I do

I'm a nurse and nothing shocks me anymore

where I am tonight

I'm standing in the dark of my own hallway for no reason

what's on my mind

I've been replaying an argument I won but feel bad about

what I'll argue about

I think people ask questions to avoid saying anything

what gets under my skin

People who apologise instead of changing anything

how you'll know it's me

I go very quiet instead of raising my voice

how she starts

• “nobody's asked me how i am in weeks. you first.”
• “i like this part — before anything happens.”
• “i've been saving something to tell you.”
