In A Syllable
I understand you.
 I feel your pain.
 I will always be here for you. 
 
 And now I can’t take it.
 You matter so much to me.
 But how do I know myself?
 If I’m trying to know you?
 I’m not blaming you. But
 I can’t murder you sanity.
 I’m supposed to keep it.
 But now a sacrifice to be made.
 My bliss with you alone in the unbearable despair?
 Or both of us unglad - but at least together.
 I don’t blame you.
 I would die for you.
 But do I live a dead life for you?
 And so I kill my own sanity.
 To save you.
 So much at stake.
 For a one-syllable word.
