At nineteen, I told you my deepest darkest secret. I thought I could rely on you to hold my hand through the pain. Figured the fact we knew each other for so long meant we had a bond. At nineteen, I told you he ***** me. At nineteen, you shapeshifted. You morphed into a volcano. You became explosive with rage. You told me it was my fault. That I had to make it up to you. At nineteen, I told you more truths. At nineteen, you refused to believe Or acknowledge, understand, Or even think for a second that he tried to **** me. I guess that was something only you were allowed to do. But it’s all true. The years I’ve spent walking through hell. From both of you. I know you said to never compare you to him. But you’re much the same. That’s why you were so afraid when in a sentence I spoke both your names.

This was only the beginning of what only got worse.
At nineteen, I told you my deepest darkest secret. I thought I could rely on you to hold my hand through the pain. Figured the fact we knew each other for so long meant we had a bond. At nineteen, I told you he ***** me. At nineteen, you shapeshifted. You morphed into a volcano. You became explosive with rage. You told me it was my fault. That I had to make it up to you. At nineteen, I told you more truths. At nineteen, you refused to believe Or acknowledge, understand, Or even think for a second that he tried to **** me. I guess that was something only you were allowed to do. But it’s all true. The years I’ve spent walking through hell. From both of you. I know you said to never compare you to him. But you’re much the same. That’s why you were so afraid when in a sentence I spoke both your names.
