i wanted it to be you.
things seemed better
when you were around
until i realized that
it was all false

it was supposed to last
me and you, forever
we would defy the world
and everyone in it

but you were a reflection
never transparent
observing as you picked
me apart piece by piece

sometimes you were cold,
staring with harsh glares
And even  harsher words
You snapped often and
your pieces flew into me
until I was only pieces too
