“Everything I’ve ever done, I did for you.

I could never envision my own happiness without you.

Constantly engaged in physical attachments, begging for the metaphysical to occur.

Didn’t you decide for yourself that their touch was more important than their heart..

Leaving them breathless with a glance was your desire but your words brought ruin upon your house.

Each incident steals away bits and pieces of an already shattered porcelain.

Setting the pace at the jump will pave a better path to a happy ending,

but we won’t talk to each other.

A simple conversation is easier than a thousand screams of an explanation.

Betrayal doesn’t happen on impulse.

Thought out or planned, prior to the indecency. Just talk to me, tell me who you need me to be.”

About the Creator

Jake Trammell

I write things I could never speak aloud. Usually in the form of poetry or short stories. One day I’d like to write a novel.
