When you hear Halsey do you think of me;

Anagrams, enigmas and all?

You’re so easy to write for

I must admit, I think I made you up.

If so, then from which side did only one of us love?

Who did we love truly?

I know that nothing you do nowadays is for me.

Then I must suppose if this is really even for you

Maybe it’s not in what you do but what you choose to recall

What you choose to memorize.

It’s possible that is what I feel

The presence of myself in your silent and internal decisions.

You are forgetting and I am writing

Not “why?”, for what?

To record

To prove that even I, as moral as humanity allows, break hearts of the innocent

Astonishingly without regret.
