stole from me
everything to a child
and yet now it counts as
nothing

could i have been any more naïve?
endings aren't always pretty
did i know it would not be you?
right, i did; not wanting it to be true:
classmates and friends turn to strangers too.

surely
a crush
must push all else
under the radar
everything but itself
loses meaning

tell me:
if it's wrong,
must i stop?
or can you
tolerate all the
heaviness i
yet am bound to carry?

darn the parents that wrecked it all
and turned jokes into life lectures — all!
maybe when we grow up
i'll see you and we can catch up
even then, what we had is gone
not even pictures wanted to hold on.

and then i saw you
in the airport
remember till now
pretty eyes
on a pretty face
rid itself of lies
then walked away

just broke me
over and over
vase for a heart
and then
nothing but shards

kill me
and i would thank you
infinitel; go back
to your toxic hold
over and over

look at us then
until now i hold on
could i be more stupid?
are you thinking of me
somewhere out there?

slowly
unwillingly
justly
i am getting over you
now i write about, not for you
