The villian will always be the villian if the hero tells the story.


I gained you in an inhale

I learned everything about you

Your favorite color

Your favorite foods

Your middle name

Everything there was to learn, I learned

I took in such a deep breath I started to become you

Your favorites became my favorites

Your stubbornness became my stubbornness

Your beliefs became my beliefs

But just like that 

You left as quickly as you had came

And just like that

I rebuilt my beliefs

I learned to be more flexible

My favorites changed

And slowly I stopped holding my breath

Everything there was to forget, I forgot

Your middle name

Your favorite foods

Your favorite color

I forgot everything about you

I lost you in an exhale


The author's comments:

I wrote this poem about someone who had a huge impact on my life, I changed everything about my self and obsorbed myself in them and we became one person. This person is no longer in my life, and Ive slowly had to rediscover and rebuild my personality unbased on them and it has been one of the hardest things for me to do.
