I think my first mistake was acknowledging the part of me that found your lips the sweetest that I'd ever had. Maybe from there it all went downhill because after that I started to feel the edges of my heart charing every time I heard your name on someone else's mouth. I suppressed the hurt, I thought I'd surpassed this, But I think I just buried it because I thought you'd be worth it in the long run. Because I thought our love was our own, Because I thought we were magic. I didn't realize that magic was fast hands and optical allusions until after you'd made yourself disappear.
