Tonight

And tonight
it is
goodbye
as I write this to
you
my eyes are

Dry at last
I stood
by you
through all that I could
until
at last
I could
feel

My
fear

That
fear
created
anger

The
anger
created

My unhappiness
somehow
fueled

Your demons
it
fed your
hunger

To

See

Me shutter

In misery

You
thrived
on it
you
survived

On
my
fear
made you

Strong

Made me

Weak

Until

I
could
stand
no more

You

Boxed me
in

You
made me
stand

Alone
in a corner

My
disappointment
woke me

Before
i died …

… before
you broke
me.
