To think, I gave you my heart.
All was well and good,
Then the dark consumed you.
You vanished.
Poof.

In your absence, I looked back on Us.
I was happy, you were happy.
All was well.
I let you inside, let you explore my mind.
I let you in on the things I've only told a few.
The demons inside me are dark and evil enough to make the most stoic of men cry, and I let you see them.


Then you returned, and tried to take me with you.

You failed.

You only managed to take a small piece of me into the darkness.


My heart.
