Third Party

Do you see?

Do you see what happened here?

Do you see what happened here because of you?

Do you not understand?

Do you not understand him?

Do you not understand how your actions affect him?

Did you realize?

Did you realize you started a flame?

Did you realize you started a flame which you strangled?

He trusts you.

He wants to keep being with you

~even if it is not that way~

He worries about making things awkward.

I watch.

I watch him suffer.

I watch him suffer because of your choice.

I watch him suffer as I once did.

I observe.

I observe you live.

I observe you live as if nothing happened.

...And it burns.

I am.

I am a third party.

I am a third party desperately trying to keep others intact.

One day.

One day I will need help.

One day I will need help for myself.

One day is not now.

Now.

Now is good.

Now is good because I understand myself.

I am a third party.

I am okay here.
