little boy, why don't you lie?

so much easier than daring to die

hey, what's your name?

katie, she says. it's a nice name. it rolls off your tongue easily.

katie, you repeat. hi. i'm travis.

you don't say that you will make her love you, but you think it.

.

why do i hurt like this?

when she smiles you feel like tearing her apart. maybe you will. she's all too perfect, a good girl, with her regulation clothes and shy smile.

that bloody smile.

i think i like the bad boys, she smirks, and you grin.

bad? oh, darling, i can do bad.

.

baby boy, you're growing up

learn the difference between need and love

what is love?

love is what you have. is it?

is love the words carved into her thighs?

is love your soul running through her veins?

is it love?

is it obsession?

it is obsession.

you do not say a word.

.

darling boy, why won't you learn

darling girls need to take their turns

.

who is she?

she's katie. she'll always be katie. little kit-kat.

girl who owns the world.

she wears flowers in her hair like her sister persephone. she braids them through her locks to form a crown.

but she doesn't rule anything.

.

stupid boy, please quit

everybody else needs to stop their shit

.

why?

your name is travis stoll. you are a demigod son of hermes. you are a thief. you have stolen her heart. you've stolen something else - something you can't give back.

here's a secret, robber - you can't reverse your crimes. better live with them.

nobody is sorry.

a/n: more (sadly) abusive tratie. 3D now, huh?
