My beautiful nightmare. I'm sorry to inform you that dawn is upon us. I apoligize in advanced for waking up and seeing clearly. My love for you was stronger than a speeding bullet and i'm sorry I wasnt fast enough to dodge it. You tempted me like I was Eve's apple and I promised myself that I would never take another bite again, but I loved you like spring time. The start of something we new could be epic but you were hesistant to let it grow. The problems were our sunshine and rain gave us growth but we never seemed to grow. Seed after seed we never seemed to grow. I needed you like Summer. Baby, we were free but I dont know why you acted like we were in a jail cell. My body was you adventure but you said you hated traveling and I asked myself WHY but you never answered MY question so I settled for a lie and I know I can't rhyme but I hated you like fall. We were dropping from the beginning but I stapled every leaf back to the tree's. Hoping they would stay, thinking that if they didn't fall that fall itself couldn't be over, that we couldnt be over, that he wasn't a lie and that I didn't waste for season of my life falling in and out of love with someone who couldn't have given less of a damn if they tried and I'm done trying but I finally realized that the leaves were bound to fall and I forgot you like winter. I forgot you so beautifully and against all the coldness of your vanity, I grew all by myslef. Look at me. Life is my garden and I'm happy you weren't planted next to me because now my roots will expand deeper and deeper into the ground so that next time someone like you comes along. I will be buried so deep in the soil that I will survive all for season. And I'll be better than okay.

This piece was inspired by a significant other who toyed with my emotions. I believe that in some way shape or form everyone will be able to take something from this and feel an emotion caused by a similar situation.
