we fell in love with the sadness-
not happiness,
but the sadness
that we radiantly emitted
from our translucent problems.
we fell in love with our flaws,
thinking that we would get away with it,
rather than working on it.
we fell in love with the naive,
the deceitful kind of love
that ruined us.
you threw us away,
like a picture.
you threw away our perfect picture,
and you let the shards of the broken picture,
break me.
you found pain
in the love i gave you,
i gave myself an excuse to
let you hurt me.
you gave me a forever,
you gave me emptiness.
we fell in love with the sadness.
we fell in love, didn't we?; h.k
