I envy you
Your ability to actually go through with it
Your ability to just end things
I don't care about your reasons
We each have our own
But you did it
You so selfishly did it
I envy that selfishness
Secretly I always have
I'm a mother
I'm a wife
I'm no longer who I once was
I am selfless
THEY get everything
Even my own soul
I wish I could be
As selfish as you
I will steal some of that selfishness when I say , I don't even care that it was "wrong" of me to write this.

do not envy me
for i am wrong
for it was this selfishness
that made me lose the one i've loved for so long
i was a father
i was a husband
i was a lover
i was YOUR lover
i stole your soul...
i held it selfishly and selflessly in my hand
and yet i threw it away
now all i see is an empty shell in front of me
my heart sinks as i see the hollow you
you don't want to be like me
not this selfish me...
the guilt will consume you
if you were as selfish as me....


sorry i wouldn't help it^^ ur poem was just so beautiful^^
