I Break All The Things I Touch

I lost you long before I was ready to admit it.

You hadn't walked out, or floated away on a breeze.
But your soul had gone.
Your hands no longer held mine as they used to,
Such tender words never to be repeated.

I held onto you so tightly.
I made you miserable.

Suffocating the life from you,
With my selfish desire to keep what we once had.
To lock it away and store it within a vault,
Within a bottomless pit.

I ruined you.
