my darling, i'll write about you so you can live forever. i'll allow my pen to bleed your essence as i lastingly imprint you on a piece of paper stained with eternity.
i'll write how your eyes morphed into two crescent moons whenever you smiled.
i'll write how a normal person smiles with their lips but you, my dear, you smiled with your whole being.
i'll write about you as i shed tears, mourning your disappearance as i am held responsible.
forgive me,
forgive me for gradually erasing you completely from everyone, from myself— and from who i was.
forgive me,
forgive me for bestowing darkness upon your being, making you lose your way and eventually vanish.
forgive me,
forgive me for living your life i do not deserve to live, for despising the things you used to love and for possessing your face but not your heart.
forgive me,
for i have morphed into
the person you
never wanted to become.
