Living in the Past.

I once knew this boy. He was my everything.


We were very different. We fought constantly over every little thing. We had contrasting dreams and aspirations and ideals in life. We were stubborn and headstrong and much too proud to bow down to the other.


We were exactly alike. We laughed and wept over the silliest things. We listened to music and drank fine wine and talked about life like we knew it all. We were passionate and full of zest, ready to take on the world.


We were idiots. We were mean. We did stupid shit we regretted and said hurtful things we couldn't take back. We were volatile and unstable. We were the ship caught in the eye of the maelstrom, too weak to get out and too afraid to let go.


This boy and I, we became one. He now lives in my every movement and my every thought. He creeps into every nook and cranny of my existence. He is all I see and all I know. He is with me in every decision and every relationship. He is, and will always be.


This boy and I, we must part.
