i spoke too soon when i said
i was over you.
one look at you and i melted.
revisiting old memories pained me to my core.
you are still living in my bones,
a sickness i cannot shake off.
i am a coward.
i am a coward because i cannot fight it alone.
baby,
it is so hard for me to fully accept that
you are no longer my baby.
no longer mine,
and i am no longer yours.
the last thing I have to hold on to
is searing anger
which arose from our passion.
i let it burn any last feelings of love for you
down,
down,
down.
