Eternal Sunshine

"I--" Sam began, then stopped to properly formulate his answer. He wasn't choosing to just keep the good parts, because those hurt too, he was choosing to lose all of it. To think of Remi as just another stranger in the street, to not know the joy it had been to be by his side or in his bed. The double questions forced him to really pause. "Because...I don't think relationships usually go this wrong, do they? Most people don't have Ludo taking away their memories. I don't...or...I hope this would never happen to me again. If Remi had..." He tried to shrug casually as if he had not thought of the ways for their relationship to end hundreds of times. "If he had cheated, or run away, or rejected me and that was all...I wouldn't be here. But Ludo ruined us. It's...too much." Samuel Well he's torn himself to pieces and each night he feels the itch To grab the needle, thread and scalpel. He'll gather, slice and stich And he'll build a brand new person where the current person sits Until he's nothing but a patchwork of other people's greatest hits
