Description
I was the best damn thing that ever happened to you. I should have been the only important thing to you, because I was the only thing that ever cared. You cannot inject me in your veins, but you could have held me close til we became one. You could have loved me, poured all your anger, sorrow, terror and confusion into me, because that was what I was there for.I loved you.
I spent every waking hour of every day ripping at my insides trying to find every shred of willpower to stay with you. I ripped to the point there was nothing left.
My insides became an embodyment on your skin, the marks you leave from your jagged finger nails, picking at unseen terrors scares me.
The length at which I will go to fix you does too.
I loved you.
I split myself in two to save your soul, by pouring my being into a cup and serving it to you every morning with your breakfast.
I swallowed my pride and it clawed it's way out ofΒ Β mouth.
I slept beside you every night and let my hopes and dreams invade into your mind as I let my nightmares of losing you overtake me.
I let myself fall apart completely because I cared enough about you to realize you can beat this.
Everytime I watch you prick holes into your arms, I find gaping rips inside my heart cavaties.
Holes inside that will never mend but only grow as I cry myself to sleep at night feeling you shake beside me.
I loved you.
Every time you promise and everytime you lie you can see the pain in my eyes. Yet the monster drowns me out.
The creature that has grown inside you is now your heart beat, and there's no room left for me.
When I leave I will take nothing of myself. I will leave it in a neat pile beside the picture of us standing together beside the sea.
I will leave myself completely so when you pick up the pieces of yourself, you can fill in the gaps with my left overs.
When you sit alone at night and the darkness begins to weigh down on your entire body and begins suffocating you with lonliness
Pick up what's left of me and hold it close. I wont feel it, but you will.
Maybe the ghost of me is what it will take to remind you you're alive.
You can take what belongs to you and fix yourself because
I loved you.

So happy to see another upload from you! And wow, this is an amazing piece. I can certainly see how it made people cry; the emotional expression is flawless. I adore what you do with thoughts and feelings...you shape them all into this surrealistically physical form that can be visualized by the reader in an almost scenic and atmospheric way, making each emotion like an object or room. This piece is especially visual. I just love the feeling of the ripping emotional pain that the poem expresses throughout, and the feeling of emptiness that it departs with. It's bloody beautiful.
Another amazing work from one of my favourite writers. <3 Thank you so much for sharing. c:

My lord, I always love your comments. They're so much more insightful then the average "I really enjoyed this, very sad" etcetc. You're fantastic :]
You're possibly the main reason I still stay on here, haha! I'm really glad someone actually enjoys and gets the full breadth of what I'm actually trying to achieve.
Awww, you're just to sweet!
