i wish i could be one of those poets
that wrote about something other than
love
and pain.
but how can i,
it pains me to love you,
and you need my pain,

too lost in each other
to know ourselves,

but amazingly enough,
this is the healthiest relationship
I have
or have had…
i only cut myself with the razor
when my hand slips in the bath
and i only think of death
when i think of leaving you.
