Notice how miserable you have made me       and fix it. I'm starting to forget how fast my heart beat when you ran your fingers through my hair as I held my breath, trying not to cry. But I know that I was shaking for days after you left and it was all over. I keep thinking that you're going to leave her and everything will go back to the way it was, but I know that isn't going to happen. Yet something prevents me from accepting this crucial detail. I am terrified that I will never be happy without you. Happiness begins to fill my body, until I think about how ******* perfect you are. And once I tell myself that I can't have that, everything else is irrelevant. Then nothing will make me truly happy. Only falsely felt, and for a slight moment before I think of you. CVT
