The Forgiveness in Humiliation

#VocalNPM

By Nat TPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

What destroyed me was deeper than

the imprint of your body on the left side of the mattress.

You always knew I hated the left side, but you, my right hand, loved the side I hated.

You complimented me,

Physically, and every way following that //

I could stare into the flowers around your iris

Or I could tell you what your love did to me...

It killed me.

I’m now in limbo of life and death.

I was in love with everything you did to the way you wouldn’t even do a thing, it burned into the deepest part of my soul.

When you left

you left a piece of yourself with me,

but I chose to forgave you
