Die While Still Alive

I died that night

The night those fingers curled around me tight


I thought it was love


Belonging, even..


But it was just another time


Another night



A time I was used for something different


A victim of my choices




He said I love you


But now looking at it; I think it was the way my body moved


The way he liked

) . (

( )



That’s just who I was that night


I didn’t think I did anything different


He liked the little things about me



Good thing the detail slipped my clothes off nicely… …



I thought we were just talking


Apparently, I was flirting


I rushed ———————————


I’d never felt that way before

Electric… really..


I think he had a familiar feeling




Just a different girl the night before

I wish I’d left when he made a sly comment



But I liked it


I thought I needed it


The attention


The “love”


Maybe something new

Something different

A New addiction



Cause old ways were stale

••

I died not from his touch

But from the lack thereof


But when he had let go..


I said “I love

His mind said “I lust


Something I hoped not to feel before


Regret doesn't start at the downfall

It began where it started


[ All of it ]


And

Every

Little

Piece

Crevasse &=and

Gapping Space


In (between)





First time for everything


First time to rush —-

First time to love. <3

First time to try •••


First time to die while still alive….
