i loved you a little less that day
when i discovered what was sacred to me was something else to someone else.when i thought you and i were the only ones.
unconditional doesn't do that.
my love replaced with something mean, something angrier, something disguised as unconditional. a monster with the prettiest, softest face. with a pride greater than her security. and with a hammer ready to collide with a stable foundation we had already built.
i shattered it. we should reconcile. i'm embarrassed.
bigger than this and the situation because i apparently thought i was so much better than someone you had previously associated with. someone you had previously been in inside.
there was a betrayal that only i felt because in this space time continuum, it's happening now, in my mind, in front of my face. over and over again
she's in for a ride.
with drunken lips and sloppy kisses, she took the treasure, picked from it and put it back.
do i still want that?
glittered in gold but alcohol fingertips.
just friends??
you were garbage to me in that moment.
but i was no better, no matter how squeaky clean, how perfect, how shiny i seem to be.
there was a darkness beside me; at my feet. i grabbed the collar from its neck and unleashed.
now you have scars.
from me.
please
forgive me.
