J. S. V. E. R. D. B.


All my lost, unrequited loves have become the same ghosts.

They perch on my shoulder as I sit alone. They remind me of my place in this life, a solitaire.

My mother’s womb made me the same mercurial creature that she is now. I am doomed to repeat her mistakes.

A tragic fate, to be filled with unwavering and overwhelming amounts of love. Empathy that I cannot contain, nor understand. And not a recipient in site.

It is too perfect, and too beautiful a thing to love something that will not, will never love you back.
