I can't shake you. You are a part of me, eating away at my sanity with your angelic smile and honey scent.

God, you're tearing me apart. You won't let me go, you won't let me move on from the life we had together. I miss you, I want you back, I want you gone. I don't know what I want anymore.

I want anything but this. You wouldn't let me help you, slipping away slowly and becoming jagged and broken like the glass in our old place. Memories are withered and lost, but others are printed in my mind forever like a tattoo.

I run, I run from you and your past and the way you used to hold me. I run from your strong hands, your warm embrace, your soft words whispering in my head like a cold winter wind.

You locked yourself away and hid from me. It wasn't your fault you broke, you were strong for so long and it wore you away like a stone slowly being weathered away over the years.

Your hold was home, like a familiar towering Oak, branches spread wide with welcoming arms. You were my rock, my savior, my everything.

And now... now you're gone.

You are lost forever.

And so am I.
