"To fall in love is to create a religion..."
"...that has a fallible god."
Jorge Luis Borges
Poetry or prose
The heartbreaker
i stand, at the ready
my heart is heavy
i cannot even...
think straight
head to the skies
there's tears in Your eyes
and I cannot resist...
looking away
i stand; You sob
i am appalled
how can i be this...
this numb
i used you, i know
and so i will go
i'll do what you need...
so i'll leave
"NO!"
no, You cry quickly
why does this hit me
it feels like such a...
mistake
i cheated, i lied
and still you reply
all i do and still i'm your...
universe?
"i'm still human" i say
but you don't go away
you come closer and closer...
i run
it doesn't feel right
to be such a light
if You think i'm the sun...
Your eyes are broken
