Did I stutter?

 I love me more than I used to love you. Did you hear that?


I’m done breaking myself to build you. But most of all, I’m done doing it to myself.



It’s so demented. I have known myself since the moment of my inception. Yet, the moment I laid eyes on you, I dismissed that. I could never feel that small again. Again and again, you swing like a pendulum. An undying indecisiveness that would leave us both waiting until the second coming. 


I look into my eyes the way you used to and feel blessed to receive such an honor. I couldn’t give away a glare without the intention of changing a life forever. Head held above the clouds my thoughts once lied upon, I am all that I dreamt of. All that I wished for. I promised myself the stars and the mountains, forgetting the valleys and expanses that lie beyond. This is bigger than you & I.


Did you hear that?
