loving him was pure. loving him burned my chest and simmered throughout my whole body. he was beautiful. his hair flopped over his forehead, his hazel eyes sparkling when he looked at me. i adored him. i wanted him forever. looking at him brought me peace, tranquility. his laugh leaped into my hollow chest and spread over the emptiness. loving him made him take over my heart.
and that's how he had control.
loving him hurt. loving him made me selfish, envious, & greedy. loving him made us two flames, merged into one. instead of creating a beautiful fire, one the people gather around to gain heat, we caused destruction. destroyed anything in our path, even ourselves. loving him ruined me. loving him broke me.
