It hurts
It hurts that you won't trust me
It hurts that you won't love me
Even though I know we aren't the perfect couple


Ed glanced at his lover, groaning at the thought of moving. "I'm sorry, Ed. I just... won't. I won't love you. It'd end badly, and you know it." The boy looked regretful as he exited. Ed knew he would never see that perfect face coming back through the door. He hid his pain though, whispering to the boy who wouldn't hear him.

"I understand."


It still hurts...
It still hurts that you can't trust me
Even though I've been through it before
I said the wrong thing
Again


"Ed..."

"I know. I love you anyways."

He was pushed away and the boy looked at him with disgust. "No. This is a game, for fun. Nothing more."

"... I'm sorry."


I'm sorry...
I'm sorry that you couldn't trust me
I'm sorry that you lied
I'm sorry that you cheated
I'm sorry that I forgave you
I'm sorry that I never asked why
I'm sorry that I believed in you...
I'm sorry that I trusted you
Even when you wouldn't trust me...


"Ed, you know why. It's... It's not serious. Besides, you've got someone else... right?"

"..." His silence told it all.

"Ed... No..."

"It's alright. It's... okay."

"No. It's not." He turned away, shoulders shaking. "I've got to go. I..."

Ed finished for him as the door closed. "Won't be back. I know."


I'm sorry I couldn't trust you
Even though we are the perfect couple
But I've been hurt, betrayed, too many times
I've lost the ability to trust
I've lost the ability to be hurt
I've lost my humanity
I've lost the ability to love...
I'm sorry...
That you couldn't tear down the bricks around my heart
That you had to leave
I'm sorry you couldn't trust me to find my way...


"NO!"

"But, Ed..."

"I can't... I can't love you. Don't ask me to trust you, not yet."

"I don't care anymore. You're heartless. You're not even human."

Ed winced as the door slammed behind his newest ex-lover. He hadn't been able to help. Maybe he wasn't the one. It hurt none-the-less.


My life is like a broken record, and it won't stop until someone can finally stay just long enough to help me trust

Love

Breathe

Be hurt

Feel again.



Hughes sighed. "It's just not worth it. I'm sorry, Ed, but... I've tried. I love you, I truly do, but... It's impossible. I don't know what happened to you, but I just can't do it. I've got a wife, anyways. ... I'm sorry, Love. Goodbye."


And repeat.


Ed shook as Roy brushed his hair back, then turned his face away. Roy sighed, pulling the young boy forward, so that his head rested in the curve of the older man's shoulder, bodies fitting in all the right places. "It's all right, Ed. I understand. I can wait. I won't leave you... Ever."
