The movie is due to end, and my heart weighs heavy knowing what that means. It's all bigger than me.
I thought as long as I didn't interrupt the narrative, all would be well. But instead the narrative interrupted me.
I've given the wounded tragic hero one more thing to lose, and that's all my fault.
I played every card wrong. I should have kept an eye out from a distance. I should have stayed away. But the magnetic force between us fulfilled its duty, and now he's stuck.
I close my eyes and he's all I see. In the quiet, he's all I hear. His words of affirmation echoing in the back of my mind constantly.
I want him with everything that lives and breathes inside of me, and that is the greatest tragedy.
If I cannot leave here, I lose him. If I leave here, I lose him.
Even though he's not really gone yet, I feel like he's already out of touch. Albeit unfortunate, I know this is how it has to be in order to keep a swollen heart intact.
