Your name.
Your sweet name.
Even when I hear it from someone else
it has a particular sonority
that affects my soul, weakens it,
and surrenders to you.
And it haunts me. And it follows me.
Wherever I go someone calls your name.
Oh, your name.
Each letter hurts me, digging in my heart
like seven tiny daggers,
bleeding out.
It hurts to know.
Reaffirm day after day the fact that you are not mine,
and that you never will.
Far away.
I want you far away, but not distant.
The pain of your absence is greater than the pain of your presence.
Violent convulsion that my heart suffers every time I lay my eyes upon you.
You.
Visual representation of a name.
A name that kills me and gives me life.
A name that moves me and paralizes me.
A name.
Your name.
