it was frightening
for me to find
that i could only
count the minutes it
would be until i
spent time with cara again,
and maybe that was what
destroyed my relationship.
i was too busy taking
from everyone and hoping
that cara would give every
thing that i took back
that i didn't realize i
had a girlfriend and friends
to worry about. i was
too worried about cara;
i wanted to feel infinite
around her and i wanted
her to tell me that
i mattered because she
seemed to be all that
stayed on my mind.
