every good catholic is raised in believing
that there are Seven deadly sins.
Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Greed, Pride---
just to name a few.
Me? I believe there are Eight.
The original seven, and Love.
Love is a deadly, venomous sin.
it takes you from who you are,
and makes you someone you are not.
one day you're smiling and laughing,
the next day your hands shake
and the scars are blade deep.
Love, is the ultimate sin.
It changes you.
And some times,
Without you knowing it,
It changes them too.
a realization that hit me today as I saw my life change, I hope for the better, for her.

today i burnt everything
i burnt all my letters that started with your name
and all the suicide letters
full of empty promises
and i expected it to stop hurting
maybe next time
i'll burn the ashes

i know that i pretend to be strong but i'm not
i can't move on from my baby
you're everything
and i know that i said then when you came back
that i would push you right back out
but i can't
and i know that i said that i wouldn't text you
over and over
but i did
and i know that i said that i wouldn't get attached
that i wouldn't let you hurt me
but i expected longer
i expected more time with you, i expected
more and you're gone
you're gone and
i can't seem to accept that you might not come back
just please tell me if you want me
and i will come back happily

You're all I taste..

Besides the nicotine
and the alcohol
I've been doing since
you were gone.

"it's not fair."
i'd say,
and my mother would reply with
"life isn't fair."
she was right,
it's not fair that i gave you everything and it was not
enough
it's not fair that i spend every second missing you and you don't even think of me
it's not fair that i love you and you hate me
well, life isn't fair.
but maybe death is.
