As I looked into your honey due eyes, I saw my future go up in flames and I gladly, happily, wantingly watched it burn.

You ignited the flame but I let it spread in my heart like a wildfire. In that moment I realized you would be my downfall, my undoing, the weight that finally made me shatter.

You were my forever happily ever after.

In my future I saw collage I saw work I saw tiring days I saw the predictable I saw smiles and laughter Then I saw you, then I saw life. I would watch my idea of a future burn into ashes…if only just for you because I didn't want my future anymore. I wanted our future.
