I could say that
I was a pebble and you were a boulder
I could say that
I was like a small dwarf planet revolving around my sun
I could say that
I needed you

but I would be lying.
I try to need you
I try to feel the way you feel
I try to remember what it was like to love you
but I cannot.

I could say
“It’s not you, it’s me.”
but that’s cliche and a lie
that would make it worse.
I could say
“It’s not anything you did”
but I’m not sure if that’s a lie

All that I know is true is
you are the last person I want to hurt
but the last person I need

Sorry.
