"I was always so consumed
Of the idea,
Of the question,
Of how someone could love me.

And as he whispered to me
Those three words
I both longed and loathed to hear,

Rather than repeating
"I love you"
Back to him,

I asked him
"Why?"

And he looked down towards the ground,
Inhaled a deep breath,
And turned away.

Leaving me to unravel
The mystery that he was.

But maybe the mystery was me."
