Thank you! I am curious to where you see jealousy here, because that was not what I was feeling during the construction of this poem, and I would love to see your perspective on it.
I guess I took the last two lines as jealousy.
“But I still wish every piece of you
Still belonged to me.”
Whether it’s a person or a job or time, desiring all of someone seems as if you don’t want to share. I hear a sense of possession. But it’s only in that line. Up until then I just hear how much pain there is from being manipulated and having to go back and forth with someone that’s not being honest. I can feel how much love there is for this person, but there’s uncertainty why, because of everything that has happened to get to this point. The confusion of love and need for this person I can relate too.
I really loved this piece. I hit a point like this not too long ago and I had to just give up. And when I say give up, it’s giving up on me and my selfishness. I told my partner to come at me…. lol that I’d take all the bullshit and that it didn’t even matter anymore because no matter what he says or does, I can’t stop loving him.
