yours truly, beast.

dear beauty,

when i'm with others i seem to forget about you. there are moments when you're completely off my mind. i surprise myself sometimes. your eyes, your laugh, your hands, always taking up my heart but not my mind. my mind refuses to acknowledge my love for you. my mind has come to hate you. but oh my darling you fill up my heart like nobody else. it's a shame. my brain is programmed to hate you, despise your very existence. but that can never happen if i listen to my heart. so, i drown it out. clutch onto the pitiful organ before it can pull me any closer toward you. restrain it. bound it with chains. chains that will rust forever around my heart, held together by the strongest links. chains i had unknowingly forged throughout the years i spent longing for you. these chains have become one with me as i embrace the emptiness of your absence.

yours truly,

beast.
