~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

The most painful experience I've had wasn't when you touched me. It was when you burned.

It was when you burned because of me.

Or maybe, it wasn't my fault. Maybe when you smiled at me through tears of anguish, you didn't blame me. I remember your pained eyes, pools of azure blue overtaken by the agony of skin alight with flames I caused.

Be happy. Breathe. Run.

I'm still finding it hard, Ajax. Love is meant to last and ours didn't and that's nothing short of unfair. But I'll look now to the future. And I'll find a way to breathe.
