    I'd like to say you weren't worth it
    But it'd be a lie
    I still think about you
    The angry, hate filled sex
    That said "I love you, but can't stand you"
    The innocence I found in your deceit
    ---
    This is true with most first relationships, that I've seen... Not that I've seen or experienced many...
    Very expressive stanza
    ---
    I found comfort in your truth
    That you loved, but it wasn't enough
    Shackled by youth and curiosity
    Maybe we always wanted to fail
    Even on the whisper of forever
    Our hearts fell silent
    ---
    "I found comfort in your truth"
    This is my favourite line of the poem,
    Here it seems like the poem softens a bit.
    ---
    I'd like to be hurt
    But in truth I saw it coming
    I inspired, you conspired
    We were both guilty
    We were both punished
    We drank it down like poison
    ---
    The first line confused me a bit, because you say that you'd like to be hurt and then say but you saw it coming? But it's very emotional.
    ---
    We killed love
    Indulged our lust on its corpse
    And fed what was left to the night
    Neither will ever be the same
    And maybe that's a good thing
    ---
    This is by far the best, most descriptive stanza! Couldn't of given a better ending to it!
    5/5
