though I doubt it...
I will stop reaching...
especially in the raw
uncharted terrain
where our hearts are pierced through
with some unredeemable pain...
I know I am being unfair...
to want and to leave
at the same time...
that to be your friend
in this place is cruel,
in this place is cruel,
or maybe not...
I can't tell...
But offering friendship
when I am the friend
that broke your heart,
our hearts...
maybe this is the ultimate
selfishness, maybe...
maybe I am being a ...
bastard of a friend,
illegitimate in the way
that word once hung
on tongues about others...
maybe... just maybe
I am a fool, too...
on top of everything else...
