When you told me you wanted to be a writer
I forgot I was one.All the broken pieces of my heart I had clawed up and out from my chest
Presented to the world,Every powerful line I had recklessly sliced myself with trying to
Patent my fingerprint onto a page,All the needles I had used trying to sew new worlds together
Forgotten.
It was as if my pain meant nothing
To me,
At the mention
Of you.I now realize that this was the first time of many in which I smalled myself in order to exalt your image
