//She.//

When I'm all alone
it is easy;

Easy to let you go

Easy to be strong

Easy to be this independent
and reckless
and unchained

But–
how did I become so weak?

Catching a glimpse of you
is enough to make me obsess again;

I am not like this

Screw you and your smirks

Screw the way you hug her
and kiss her
and love her

Screw this all

and screw these god damn feelings.

But when the sun rises
and I see your face again

I shiver.

Every piece of me shivers.

And–
what have I become?

Why does your silhouette always burn
in the back of my mind?

I hate this all

Because it's killing me;

The heat of your presence
is burning my essence out

And–
what have I become?
