you asked if we
could still be friends
like you hadn't done
enough already.
i looked into those
deep brown eyes
carrying galaxies
i only dreamt of
exploring.
'how in the world
can i still be friends
with a boy
who used me
for his own
selfish needs?'
a look of confusion
devoured your face.
so,
with your hand in mine,
i let the tears fall
until you understood
how shattered
you were leaving me.
'everything hurts,
and everything is broken,
but everything can heal.'
i think you saw
the pain i was suffering,
and you knew
it was because of you;
you might've even
fallen in love
for a second, too.
