Deleted

You're gone.

It's my fault.

I'm deadened.

la lumiere

it's gone

I'm bereft.

 

the choice to fan the ember to blazing flame

was there

I ran

I'm empty.

 

match-perfect, close to narcissism

I can pretend we were torn apart by Fate

it is I who did the tearing

we're deleted.

 

I'm a coward

oh, mon chéri seul

please find in your heart to forgive me.

 

You're perfect

but poison

I'm nine-tenths to numb

Don't forget me.
