The fact that he only made you more lonely should have been a clue, sweetheart. Stop trying to configure yourself with someone else's body parts, they won't fit right leaving you with a phantom limb here a vestigial ***** there. You thought it was love because he paid for your meal and called back when you slammed the phone down, but this was just because he was even lonelier than you. He has only ever loved one girl the last time he saw her she was holding a gun to herself appointing herself the victim. She was a tragedy of the most catastrophic kind and he wasn't ready to be a refugee just yet, but he let you shelter him. You became the glaring neon sign, flashing "loneliness" You took the bait, and he kept reeling in the line, but was disappointed with what he found at the end.
