"Once Upon a Time"

you talked to me like a fcking child
and i fell away from you
and then you did it again
and i fell even farther back
and i loved you from shadows
and you apologized
and i refused to emerge from darkness
and i wanted you to suffer
i had suffered
hadn't i?
but you did because . . . once upon a time
a little boy disappeared into the shadows
and he refused to eat
and he thought his blood made pretty patterns on the floor
and he forgot what beauty was
and he talked to himself out loud
and he forgot about love

he forgot you
