What makes
you think
that I need
anything
from you
anyway?
Hmmph.
My pain is not
your gain.
Your gain is not
my pain.
We are two -
me
you
I ache
for more
and yet
I cannot
let you
have this
over me.
Help.
It is a trap,
or it was.
Where did I go?

It was a pleasure to receive your comment. You're most welcome. I'd never written something like that before, and it really was inspired by your writing.
