I watched it unfold, watched our beautiful creation fall apart in a second, a wall crumble down.
The whole world stopped and I became silent, frantic.
Hold on, do not fall apart.
He reached for me, tried to see my eyes but I didn’t look up I was so sad
Afraid
Oh God, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Please…
He fell back
I watched him drown
I know it’s not your fault, but look at what you’ve done
Now I am trembling
Hurting
He pulled me into him, kissed me until I was comfortably sedated
His words are morphine
I feel them in my blood, in my limbs, veins vibrating
Forever I will consume
A slave to this restless hunger
This precious, fragile love that I hold so tight in my fists
But now I lie here in this nest of fabric and skin
And this small place inside of me is crying
Just let me forget
And feel numb
Nothingness
*Please.
