i saw a quote the other day
about emptiness
and how no amount of love
on this planet
can fill it
when it's sincere
and i couldn't help but think
of myself
as a black hole
gaping and bare
stealing kisses in the dark
and words out of the mouths
of babes
just for the thrill
just for the reassurance
that i am desirable
but nothing more

because he took
the rest of my capabilities
with him.
this is a ****** poem but this quote hit me hard: "'you know what the problem is?' he asked, 'it's not that i'm not enough, it's that you're empty. you're just so ******* empty and greedy that every single person on this ******* planet could love you and it wouldn't be enough for you.'"
