Preparing myself from a great heartache, I'll only allow you to keep a quarter of my heart.

I've decided.

Even though you've acknowledged what you do. Even if you warned me about there being a risk.

You're never going to change.

Clearly, you're too comfortable doing the same thing over again and I won't turn you against what gets your adrenaline pumping.

I know what drives you causes both pain and pleasure. No matter how tempting being in your world is, I won't allow myself to stay in there forever.

We both know that all good things come to an end. Coming so close to being my definition of perfect, I'll be damned to not break things off before I completely lose this game
                                      And my sanity.

I hope to be a difficult challenge. I hope that I don't suffer alone. I'll leave, and you won't do anything to get me back.

Blame me for being stingy, but I want to keep you. It feels like a forever thing when you pay attention to me when you're busy.

Knowing that you're intrigued by this book, I know that you won't listen to me, and I'm completely fine with that. I never wanted you to read my thoughts until I was officially over you.

So that's me being honest. I tend to be vulnerable when opening up to people. I won't get caught up. You, knowing how I'm innocent, and me, knowing that you have a tinted soul. I blame myself for caring about you.

I'm ready to risk it.                         Let me be your painkiller.
                                   Just this once.
