And I couldn’t help it. I couldn’t. I knew you had me, actually No, no I didn’t. I didn’t know you owned every part of me. I swear I didn’t. You were lovely though; So sweet..so soft, your skin surfaced an envy within me, but it didn’t matter..You were mine. Tracing the outlines of your face, I couldn’t get over the goosebumps; Never perfect with anyone else. It wasn’t even the butterflies or the blushing that made it obvious, it was the way your hands automatically intertwined around my waist and your eyes were constantly locked on mine. Those silent moments when my eyes were loud and your eyes responded calmly.
Monday I drifted away;
I saw you one final time. I couldn’t wake up, but I was up before dawn. It was lovely you know, waking up next to you; but I have a confession. I never really slept. I stayed awake to make sure you were okay. You constantly shake when you sleep, and you turn and sweat as if you’re in a nightmare. I wanted to make sure, you’d find me ready to protect you once you woke up.
Tuesday I woke with the dawn;
I tried finding our old necklace and bracelet out on the road where you threw them; I kept thinking; If I find them it’ll be a sign, and once I tell you, things will change and we’ll be okay. I was astonished the first time you apologized for not wearing the bracelet, because you thought you broke it and you didn’t want me to know. It was sweet.
Wednesday I hung from a tree;
I swear I couldn’t breathe. It was the worst, I still remember. I couldn’t wake up alone, it was to devastating. The sticks and stones didn’t even compare to your words. The vulgarity in your voice. I gave in, and that basement was so cold. You told me you were sweet and you’d defend me, what ever happened? Your eyes were lifeless, and I bled from crying. Yet you kept pushing.
Thursday was harder to take;
The pills started piling on my plate; But don’t worry, it was for my illness. I couldn’t stand you, the jealousy came back. Why couldn’t you change? I should have known. Make me believe in you, I yelled, I swear I did; I needed you. I did, and I couldn’t turn to anyone because you made sure they were gone. I should have known.
Friday, in a cascade of light, I was saved.
God, Please help him, I swear he’s good..I swear he’s a sweetheart,..I swear. God you witnessed these days in replay. I swear I tried, these three years were what I wanted. God I know we messed up, but I can’t help it. You saw us,..it was perfect. God, I can’t handle it..I need..I need you. God, my lord, Please help me.

I’m okay btw; It was just something to write; One of those things. I was just struck by old memories.
