as i looked back on the intricate details of our love, i realized the root of our differences. as i thought through the polarity of our opinions, words began to flow and so i wrote:
you lusted.
i loved.
you saw the surface
i saw the realms
hidden away in your mind.
you wanted to touch
but i wanted to feel.
you were running
with nowhere to go
and i was left far behind.
you were a vessel
almost crushed beneath the waves
i was the cliff
beaten but steadfast.
you sought the simple things
comfort, a body, a feeling
similar to your drugs-
the ones you ran to when we ended.
i wanted more
love, protection, hope
now i realize,
i can have all these things
without you.
