dinosaurs roamed the earth once, nearly a million years of life for them, I wonder if humans can last that long, or are we just a insufficient species just occupying the world until God can make a better, more advanced species that can save it

I Wonder
before I run out of falling space I just wanted to tell you that it wasn't your fault.

I Jumped
Tuesday. Cold. Dark. I was worried. That gut wrenching feeling tangled my insides together so tightly. 'let's take a walk' Oh no. What did I do. What did I say. 'here, Ruth....' That's my name. What happened babe? 'I'm sorry.' No. No. No. Speak. Your voice. Use it. Why. What. 'I can't do this anymore.' What. 'I love her' Who. 'we've been together a few months.' Liar. 'I don't want to cheat.' Did you ever love me. 'you changed.' I cut myself. 'you're not as happy' Of course not. 'I can't take it.' Okay. Then it was over. Everything. Gone. The only reason I'd held on to life. Eight months. Disappeared. My heart was numb for a second. That gave me the power to walk away. But in just a second, It smashed. Into a billion little peices. Walking hurt. Crying hurt. The bathroom floor was cold. I was that girl. Alone. On the ground. Broken. Then I found shelter in something I'd only ever tried rarely. The sharp jagged metal launched by my very own fingers caressed my wrist just enough so I could distract myself. He ******* destroyed me. And my body. And my soul. And my mind.

****
your voice of "i love you" rings in my head if you really meant it like you said you did then why'd you leave so suddenly?

Because
It's 3am and I'm fighting back the memories of you. But you're breaking through all of my defences. I just need to feel your touch one last time. I might be greedy but I miss the nights you were mine. Darling please. Why did you leave like that. Whispers in the hallways saying you would love to have me back.... But nothing. No phone calls. No messages. No letters. It's 3am and the only way you're with me right now is because my memory can't seem to erase any moment of when we were together.

Memory
it just hit me now that he is really gone. i can't seem to comprehend the fact that he is no longer here to keep me going to push me to wake up every morning to be happy and to smile and live. i am now realizing that he's gone. he said goodbye a week ago. yet i am still trying to figure out why. as i replay his words in my head i die inside each time. his voice in my head every hour of the day. it hurts, a lot to know he's gone. he was my everything my world but now i dont know what to do now that my world has left me. i am nothing without him. so i sit here and write about him pathetically crying to myself, because i truly do miss him, dearly.

the pain
I. the apparition i don't fear death, i fear never being born; i fear not my last breath, but all the breaths in between; how do i know i'm alive? II. the left foot for what purpose is the sun without its light? for what use are eyes without their sight? for what good is a left foot without the right? and for what joy is a string without its kite? will i ever be complete? III. father as branches grow to the shape of their roots, as vermillion bloodies every spring with a drop: could i escape original sin? could i become a better man-- could i become my own man? IV. aneurysm would lightning dare blaze up a tree that has yet to bear fruit? would the gods dare strike down an artist with a painting unfinished? fate is neither cruel nor fair.
