You never existed, we were not alive, i wasn’t my mind froze when you asked, I wasn't myself, I lost it all in the drape you put over my heart, a half-beaten down animal, i was trained and trained myself too, i covered up my mouth desperately tried to please the eternally void — emotion that was the catch, i had so much to say, but the latch i made myself, took away everything, all that made me smile — you never made me smile, and nothing i tried was full or right or splendid average, my eyes lit up for a darkness crept into my bones took me aback, i didn’t think that light could be drained by a black hole you told me so, and i believed it — what were we ever? i, a soundboard for your misery, you, a reflection of my own self-doubt, i never loved you, but you never loved.
