Jenga


That’s what our ‘love’ was. Taking pieces of each other until it became a weak structure. In each gaping space, I saw your guilt.
Your guilt of taking pieces of me; My unhappiness. 
Eventually, your guilt and my unhappiness piled on the structure until it collapsed. At that moment, I realized this isn’t love. 
This wasn’t how it should have been.
