her eyes teared up
showing that something inside her was claiming for help
something she couldn't release
all the things she wanted to say were blocking her throat
and those things were eating her from the inside out
making her gag

all those "i cant live without you" were killing her
and every "i fucking love you" were like poison to her lungs
and then she said it
she told him
and she felt every single word
burning down her chest
and kissed the death
relieved, at last.
