someone that you used to be
“Did … the things you said, back then…” You shouldn’t ask, you cannot ask, but the memory of this creature's admission, the truth he laid bare to you in a paranoid frenzy, haunts you every time you stare into his eyes and find him gone. (“He died thinking about you, maybe that's what made me love you too.”)
Somehow, it feels like all breathable air has been sucked out of this place. You hold his stare and your breath while you wait for any emotion to pass by his neutral facade. “Yes,” he says it with flourishing finality, with self-assured confidence that maims you in your uncomfortable seat.
“What I said that night is all true.”
