XI. I hate it when I see you (11/11/14)

I hate it when I see you
It makes me ache for something I can never touch
It gnaws at my bones and extinguishes warmth
It leaves my insides hollow and cold
And it aches
And aches
And longs for something to fill the void
A void that no one else but you can seal.
And so I promise
Not to seek you out anymore
Because I'm okay when I don't
But whenever I see you
I'm reminded of a place I can never go to
And I don't want this rabid thing inside my chest
Tormenting me with its angry beats
And eats me up until nothing's left.
