143

I didn't know that 143 was text speak for I love you until a teenager told me. I had to ask because the man I was seeing sent me that message. Now, I'm still not sure how I feel about it, so let me share this with you.

143

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will surely stop my existence.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will beat me down to nothing.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will destroy me with unrepeatable names.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will kill my spirit with hateful words.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will leave bruises for the world to see.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will demand, with no regard, things that hurt me.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will insist on you way even if it cost me my life.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will eventually say, "I never loved you."

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

If you love me,

You

Will shatter me to pieces, leaving me alone.

I love you.

Three words that strike fear in my heart.

I do not want

You

To love me.
