Why are you here?

Why do you chase me when I walk away?

Haunt me in my sleep,

I see you before my eyes flutter shut 

every night,

Your voice is the one I hear as I wake up,

You're perfect smile,

Flawless skin,

Beautiful, Not broken eyes,

Burned into my memory,

You always come back,

No matter how many times I tell you to leave,

No matter how many times I tell you I don't want to be you or to be near you

Anymore,

You tell me that I'm lying,

That I still want you,

Need you,

And for once you're telling the truth,

Because if I didn't want you anymore, 

You would be gone,

Characters die if you make them

To Julia- I love you and I hate you, you are the perfect person that I will never be, the stupid standard that I can't let go of.
