Tell me to be strong
Strong so I don't falter in my steps
The steps I take to walk away from you
Tell my skin not to flush
A flush from the mere image of you
Tell my breath not to catch
Strangled in my throat by the sound of you
Tell my heart not to race
Race with thoughts of the intimate you
Tell me not to cry
Cry with loss of my best friend, you
Tell me, fine...But it's no use.

They only wanted my sleeve, but they took my heart along with it too.
