Holes

You were comforting

always there for me.

You caught my tears,

and wiped my tears away.

We were like partners in crime.

Criminals in justice.

I brought you everywhere

birthday parties, vacations,

funerals.

I even left you at a hotel once

and somehow got you back.

But I used you.

I chewed you up.

The strings that held you together

stretched out

and broken.

Scars.

Irreplaceable.

And you couldn’t take it

anymore

But i couldn’t take

losing you.

So I replaced you.
