and you...

and you ran away to zibalee and put two hands in the runic puddle of the daylight and you threw away Athena's kisses and spent them instead on his touches and on three spasms of obscene romance and he loved a sweet lily who rotted when she found out she rotted at the sight of you and she stunk up the room with her holy perfumes of miserable purity and you are left in the dust, filthy and used by him and then you watched his heart break and you realized you were in love with his eyes and hands and mouth and you never hated yourself more than when he said "you're too high, you don't even care" and you threw up from the stress and he wouldn't hold your hair and he pushed you into the wall and screamed that he hated you and you can't fix it anymore so you walked to the bridge and you quietly fixed everything with a soft splash and he didn't cry because you helped break his heart in two and you just look up from the waves, blue and beautiful and you remember the way he laughed and you can't help but sink down and let it all go.
