There was something
pure in your eyes
and something
sinister about
your smile.
And my god,
I loved it.
Enjoy.
There're spaces within
my chest,
         and this redundant
       motion of
             rising and falling
     will suffocate
   the very essence
of my soul.
     And as I ache
     for the love that
     your body
     provides,
I will find myself
reaching for you-
      completely
              deprived.
Hope you enjoyed the free-verse.
The less
you
tried,
     the more
      I fell
      in
      love.

And that's
been the
story
thus
far.
-Andrew Durst.
I tried to save you
when I told you I was toxic.
But you only took it as me
trying to push you away
with my undying fear of commitment.

But it is the start of a new time,
and 9 months later,
I am rereading the text of,

"If I was dead,
I wouldn't have to worry about
any problems."

And all I could think to say was that
you wouldn't be able to enjoy any solutions either,
but I know the truth.

You weren't this broken in the beginning,
and I had warned you.
