Choking

I couldn't breathe when I saw you again.

I thought it was because of the eruption of butterflies I felt.

I thought it was because of the way my words stammered out around you.

But it was neither.

I couldn't breathe because I was choking.

I felt like gasping for air but no amount of oxygen was enough to get rid of this feeling.

And it hurt.

Seeing you hurt.

- the feeling of heartbreak from someone who was never yours
