you crawled inside my being
nestled underneath my skin
taking in the air I’m breathing
like an identical twin
consuming my attention
memories like bullet holes
tearing through my best intentions
eating pieces of my soul
hiding underneath my eyelids
seeing everything I see
reigniting past love again
hidden parts inside of me
like a knife carving me open
revealing emotions left unseen
healing the parts that I have broken
loving unlovely parts of me
then as quickly as it started
you began with someone else
incomplete I’m brokenhearted
abandoned, left upon a shelf
lost in what we once called love
holding the remnants in my hands
hoping one day, the one I dream of
will be exactly as I planned
