denial
I stepped into the past
Into you;into this
into what we had
and what I found
that what we had
we lost and
there is no going back
no time machine
not a goddamned hope
to recapture
the something
or nothing
we were/could have been
I loved you
but lost it
is this a cheap
hollow imitation
of what we had
or is this a cheap
hollow imitation of
what I need today
either way
it's my life
and you don't fit
quite as well as you
used to.

a simple, but honest look at how we can lose it and miss that true "golden time" we had with someone... friend or more. every line, every pause, every break (even the spacing in L2...love it for effect) hit me harder than i would like. kudos, madame.

you don't fit
quite as well as you

but still some fitting nonetheless and well I,ll hang my hopeless hat on that anyway

I think we can make anyone fit even when they shouldn't. I wrote about the point when I decided making someone fit just wasn't good enough anymore.

You can do anything you want to do, you have the power. Remember to bow out graciously. Don’t fear your power enjoy it. Oh and what is your power? You are the ruler of men. Don’t expect to be excepted, by women or men. Just do it.
