Everything hurts again.
I don’t want it to but it does.
It hurts and I can’t do anything about it.

My heart is ripped out there are teeth sinking into it.
Claws are marking my body again.
My mind is being burned by the fire.

Yet this time
I can’t feel the claws
I can’t feel the fire.
I only feel the teeth.

They’re sharp
they’re deadly
this time they will win
I will lose.

I don’t want to win this one.
They can have each other
I’ll stick to myself now.

I’m done with this game
I’m done with this temporary light.

At least in the darkness, I’ll be there
I know who else is there too.
No one it’s just me
I’m okay with that.
I’ll sit in the dark with myself.

Yet still
"I love you until my dying day"
