The Bitch Is Back

I understand darling. I know you're hurting. Come here, let me take the pain away. I'll hold you, kiss you, stroke your hair. I'll talk to you. Come closer, it'll be okay, I'll make it okay, I can fix anything. Stop lying to me. Stop saying I can't help, stop saying I can't be yours. I can be. I can be. Let me be. Just come closer. Come closer. Please. Don't make me say it. Don't make me tell you how I feel. I'm afraid of what will happen, afraid of the silence that will follow. Ignore her. Pretend she never happened. Pretend she never hurt you. We can both be clean and free from our pasts. Please. Please. Please.


I love you.
