when we meet

(trigger warning: abortion)

i love you

but we've never met

and we never will

​

i love you

but as i wept

i took the smallest pill

​

my love for you

a swirling dream

of violent, vibrant red

​

our path ahead

filled with debris

so i turned back instead

​

do you think we'll meet

when we're both dead?

​

can you please help me

escape what's in my head?

​

can you console the piece of me

that left when you did too?

​

can you forgive, forgive me please

​

for loving the woman i've become

​

without you.
