III

I read your note, and I know just what you want to hear.
It hurts less over time, but I’m not getting stronger. I just leave pieces behind.
I can only fall so many times before I’m broke, unrecognizable.

Now all I’ve left to give is the piece that still remains, and you bring the pieces back.
Love, it only reconstructs the pain.
As time fails to elapse, I’m finding you were everything to me.
Now my future and my past are ending tragically the same.
