I didn't mean to hurt you.

Not at first.

It was just a game, a bet,
when it all began.

But as the days went by,
I grew attracted
and attached
to the way I was making you feel.

I watched you fall from grace,
hit the ground in pain
whilst I tortured you
under the pretence of loving you.

And I began to thrive in it,
in your hurt
and sadness
and frustration.

It brought me joy,
seeing you suffer.
It gave me power.

I indulged in your regret.

It consumed me.

I meant to hurt you.
And I enjoyed it.

i'm back again with more. this is something i wrote in my seminar today, and one of my classmates told me it gave her vibes of 'after' by anna todd. anyway i hope you enjoy this, let me know

aria.
