You feel it hurt.
The tingle in your body before the stinging in your eyes, the ache in your bones and your swelling throat.
I would do anything for you.
Clenched jaws and white knuckles and taut necks.
Raised voices and flinching, fingers interlocked.
I messed up, I know, but I love you more than you can ever know.
They tell me that I should just forget about you,
stop seeing you in fruit juice and staircases and striped shirts.
But you've ruined me, you have.
You blinded me with the light I saw in your eyes,
robbed me of my ability to feel after you burned me with the scorching love you made me feel for you.
