I lied. I lied to someone who means the world to me. And I'm not going to say how I lied because I know you'll read this, and that would defeat the purpose of the lie all-together. Please be happy. That you find happiness is the greatest joy I could know.
But there's a selfishness inside of me that's dying to know something I have no right to ask. I read the question I see passing into my view as it circles my head endlessly until I have no choice but to say it out loud: Will you still wear my ring? The one I got you when we talked about commitment and shared dreams?
The broken voice beneath my lungs grumbles that I tell you not to. That you have no right.
The voice bred of selfish fears demands I beg you to never take it off. At least, in that way, you have a solid reminder that I am truly real.
We are still friends, no matter the 'ex'es, and I much rather this than have you disappear. And we only talk less now because you have more life to live, the knowledge of which brings me much pleasure.
And I am happy because I know that I still share a part of your life.
And I am crying because I know, in the ending of things, I lied.

The Letter
Of me it always gets the better
A reminder of what you once were
It will stick to me no what what will occur
A piece of parper with so much meaning
A memory of the smile beaming
The memories tend to flow
It will always be a comfort to know
The degree of happiness that came
Of how you took my heart to claim
You may be distant from my heart
But the paper gives my day a start
The words you wrote are slowly fading
My mind is always one you're raiding
The moonlilght still shines below
Gleaming memories from a freshly fallen snow
The summer nights still remind me of the night
When your smile pierced through with an angel's light
No matter how

letter to the sycophant
Self-pity is everyone's poison, said the squall, ripping away from the ocean. Staying put was always just a harder form of running away. Her thoughts: running amok silent to the death, an entropic coagulation of everything to follow. Here, anonymous, drink to the sugar-coated and the smiles you've left undone; sink into the famous last words you've yet to discover; write them down, write them steady. They're looking for a stature that's eluding them quicker than the ground that slips from beneath their knees. What if i can't outrun the stars? You must; you must.
Before the afternoon of a moonless august you charted soliloquies in medium that

She said to me;
“Bloom where you are planted.”
What if I’m not planted in the right place,
And get mistaken for a weed?
What if I’m poison ivy in your garden,
Or an oak among mistletoe?
I’d prefer to uproot myself, And move elsewhere
Thankyouverymuch.

And I am crying because I know, in the ending of things, you lied to me. Did you think I didn't know? I didn't see?
Because in the ending of things, you will always hold a piece of me...
