Breathed enticingly. Senses into oblivion. "Do you know what it's like to loose a part of you? Do you know what it's like to have half of you ripped out? Do you know what it's liked to be broken, yet still alive? Do you? Do you? ::snicker:: I didn't think so. You don't know what it's like to loose someone who meant the world to you, find them again, only to loose them after finally 'knowing' them. You don't know how if feels to have your heart ripped from you, stabbed, burned, tossed about, and then thrown back at you like some worthless garbage. You haven't been forced to watch the only person you ever cared about suffer a long agonizing death, when the only thing you wanted to do was reach out and take away their pain. You didn't have to hold them while they cried because they found out too late, or tell them that everything was going to be all right when you knew that that was a lie. You didn't have to watch all the memories you shared with them replay before you eyes while you yearned to go back in time to savor every precious moment you shared with them, because you took it for granted that they would always be there for you and to buy you clothes or to take you out to dinner or take you to see the latest movie. You didn't realize that the days were slipping away like water and that you were some type of sewage swallowing it up. You weren't not there to hold their hand when they shuddered their last breath of life, and you weren't not the last thing they saw when the left me all alone."
