We lie in bed, eyes refusing to break. I look into her, and she looks into me.
She sees through it all.
All performances.
All facades.
She places one last kiss; something inside cracks. Out streams years of the man I’ve hidden. She’s put the pieces of who I truly am together, seeing me.
She wipes my tears; I wipe hers.
My heart tightens; this is where I leave the warmth of her arms which have held me together.
Knowing that, I still get up.
Each step causes me to fall apart.
“I Love you.”
Knowing that, I still leave.
Show some love and heart this if you enjoyed!
