Argue with me
Until I become a child again
Craving silence
When I wanted attention
You brought me torment

Why did either of us think
We weren't doomed
Penchant for dissociation
Being with you
Is like being alone
But watched from a dark corner
I can see the glow of your eyes when I close mine

Bones are wearing down
Chipping away

I.
I am.
I am not.
Lost.
I am.
Not a lost.
Cause.
I am. Not a red. Flag.
When you.
When you drown.
I. Will know. True relief.
You.
Do not. Deserve my.
Life.
You are. Infection.
If. I turn. To face you.
I.
Know I'll.
Become salt.

Ephemeral
Set a course for lands we'd never reach
Limping through the weeds
While I stare on blankly

Commensalism
Turned parasitic almost at once
It was you
Who made me feel dull
I can't forgive that
I can't forgive you

Limerence
Now it seems glaringly obvious
Attachment
I cannot be left alone with this
Empty space
