I stand
I clutch the ground
the same ground that you and I
once walked together.
and a month ago
if you could've asked me
what life was
without you,
I would've said
"impossible."
and that was the answer you wanted.
a week ago,
if you were to ask me the same question,
I would reply
"bitter."
for I did not understand
that the ground
we once walked on
together
was a path paved
for me
so, instead
I let you take my hand
and pull me through
a terrible maze
that was not crafted
for you.

this is seriously terrible I didn't edit or anything
