114.

we dreamed and we built and we blazed ember-bright
we roamed and we drank and we twined
and we loved but you lied

and I broke too soon
but I balanced and breathed
I pulled and I asked and I tried
and I tried and I tried

and I loved but you lied

so you cradled and crooned
and you brushed my hair as it grew
you wanted me the best way you could
and you gathered me up when I fell
and you loved but you lied

so we shook and we wept
and we splintered and cracked
we held our own hands and I cried
and we loved but you lied

I burned and I twisted and broke
and you rolled your eyes as I folded in two
and we wanted and wished
and we swept ourselves out to sea
and we loved
and you loved
and I loved
and I loved
and I loved

but you lied.
