I guess I did it so you would know that I could.
That your windows are only glass and your alarms are just batteries.I didn't take anything
Even though everything lay just below my fingertips. I brushed my hands over your photographs and jewelry and cloths.I sniffed your pillow and imagined what it would have been like if you were their
If I had been able to touch you
I guess I did it because I wanted to be like you.
I wanted to be stable and feel secure
But in the end, I realized that no one is secure here. That the door couldn't stop me from getting in.
So Neither could your hands
Or your eyes
Or your legs
I wanted you to know what I was capable of.
So when I left
I placed a peach in every room.
To symbolize the eternity
I could have taken from you.I hope you hate peaches
Because I hate you.
