i ADORE the way people’s brain come up with such poetry, AI could never.

How does one expect love when they’ve lost all that made them shine? How do you know the other person would look at this stripped down version of a once charming person, and still call them beautiful?

“I've been picking names for our children

You've been wondering how you're gonna feed them”

That is them wanting to live a peaceful life but knowing that them living conditions make it impossible

“I never meant to hurt you

But somehow, I knew I would

Will it be like this forever?

I'd reach into your body

And fix you if I could

Will I feel like this forever? (Forever, forever, forever?)

Are you angry?

Do you hate me?”

That is Tonya after leaving the east end

“Yeah, you've changed

But did I ever know you?

Or did I hold you

Facing away from me

The air in your room never moves

Live and die by TV no one's watching”

That is Tomny after Tonya leave not understanding why she leave a whole letter for Remus and just a sticky note to him

“Still I waited and tried, 'til it killed me

'Cause you're right

I can wait if I want

But it'll never be good enough like I

Want to believe it is, is, is”

Sometimes, when Evan leaves, Barty sits in the silence, staring at his hands, unsure if he should take a shower, get dressed, or just stay where he is. He feels hollow, like the rules are the only thing that give him shape. When Evan is away for days, Barty sleeps in the same position, barely eats, waiting for the next command to tell him who to be.
