We never touched, we never kissed we never did the thing a “normal” couple would do, but we weren’t living in a normal world so why should we have acted normal?
Every day could be considered a date, pulling me up form that fire escape was the equivalent of a first kiss, those socks we found in the raided apartment store; our first anniversary, me patching up your rag of a jacket was a proposal, we both had a stronger bond than the people that raised us.
We might have never said it but the words didn’t need to be said, witch, I find ironic, friends used to tell me that they didn’t say it until after the third time having sex, but I've never even seen your belly button, without your raggy jacket and duck-taped covers your a person I can’ t even began to imagine.
We never had a fancy dinner at a restaurant neither of us could afford but a partly heated up can of sweet potatoes and green beans were somehow better.
You remember that night we found a bottle of vodka and an old working cassette player along with a bunch of songs by some loser from the 2000′s? if not that's fine, but that night as we curled up sharing a pair of broken headphones I knew, I knew I could never… I could never do this, and yet here we are.
You've been gone almost an hour, I need to get it over with before you-no it wakes up, but I can’t, I’ve been crying for an hour trying, trying so hard to put a bullet through your brane so that it doesn't wake up but I can’t.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry I can’t do this, but I can’t live in a world that you don’t.
taking a deep breath I lay next to you aiming the gun so that the bullet will travel from my brain to yours, I don’t care about surviving, I saw the pain my grandpa went through after losing my grandmother and if our love was anything like there’s I will not live thru it, I will not.
I love you, please be on the other side.
