I Still Do

“Do you still love me?” But of course I do. I always have, and always will. I can never get closure as I fell in love with a façade. A character created by the smoke of your demons. But alas, I’m still in love with you. Though my heart is only mere dust, those particles have sucked up the love I once held strongly for you. It’s now place in a jar, hung on a shelf in my ribcage. It may no longer beat in tune with you anymore, it may not beat ever but it’s still there. I keep all our memories, destroyed promises and treasures locked away on the shelf as well. A bitter sweat remembrance, of the beautifully painted chaos that was our life. You’ll always be in me, always be locked away. So darling, don’t forget; I still love you
