premature decathect
i'm not empty.
i tell myself i'm not a void.
as soon as you left,
i let my guard down.
it's your fault you missed it.
as i'm analyzing the blood-splatter,
i see traces of your other victims' faces.
the crime i'm paying for is not my own.
if something made me,
it must have seen this coming.
i feel sorry for her,
the one that hasn't arrived yet.
i withdrew before she was even an idea.
if i didn't, i'd make a mess of things.
apathy, too, my friends
is a form of self-defense.
