      ARSON

      You loved me,

      that much I knew.

      I read the messages

      after we split.

      While I tried to move on

      you tried for us to heal.

      But the cracks were too wide

      for normal glue.

      I cried with every message,

      every snap,

      every text,

      because I could feel

      how much you loved me,

      but why wasn’t it enough

      when we were together?

      You were the best,

      I said,

      when we first met.

      Because six months in

      you were the worst.

      Instead of ending it

      you said It’s just for a little while

      pretending

      there was no service

      ten miles down the road

      as you spent your time

      messaging her,

      convincing her

      I was

      delusional

      for believing

      you were still mine.

      I guess I should have known

      when our conversations ended

      and began

      with I was pretty

      that you didn’t actually want me

      you wanted my body.

      Maybe I am broken,

      shattered glass amongst plush carpet

      pushed deep into the skin of your toes,

      just a bother

      as I cling to you.

      Please,

      don’t remove me.

      I wanted to ride around

      or hike to that spot

      to look at the stars,

      but you had used me to my full extent,

      and didn’t care if I sat on your bed

      with no food,

      thirsty,

      nothing to do,

      until I slipped under the covers

      hiding my tears

      as I knew the end was near.

      Falling for you is like climbing a brick wall,

      my fingers grasping the cracks as I pull myself up.

      I slip and tear open the flesh on the tips

      of my fingers. I want to give up,

      but I yearn for you more.

      I climb again, a handhold here, a foothold

      there. I climb higher this time and cling

      to the wall as it crumbles around me.

      I fall

      and am crushed.

      I never took you for a runner,

      and yet you still took off with pieces of me

      crumbled and torn,

      leaving me in rubble,

      coating me in dust,

      that I’m still washing away.

      You haunt me in ways

      I never thought someone could remain.

      Your scent clings to the bedsheets

      and as much as I will it to go,

      it stays.

      I touch your things

      taking them in one last time,

      one last sight,

      one last feel,

      one last feel as I cry into a shirt

      I
