• Everyone would ask, "Why him?"
    Of course I knew the answer.
    He was my EX, hurting me mentally everyday.
    Being with him was like being in a dark dark world, all alone.
    But there was a tiny light in this place, very tiny.
    It was all the good things he did for me.
    It was in the center of the darkness.
    I kept concentrating on that light, thinking it was beautiful.
    But no matter how hard I tried to look away, I couldn't.
    It always made me feel a little better.
    I stayed with him long enough to know that now the light in the dark was fading.
