This Heart is Already Frozen

A fun combination of adderall and a Social Psych midterm inspired some creativity:

My pride ultimately delivered our fatal blow. It was an overwhelming occurrence of cognitive dissonance. You caused the initial heartache, and my desire for an unyielding feeling of self worth made it impossible for me to accept that. I often wonder that if I had overcome that state of internal tension you may have found an absolute love in me. I painfully take refuge in the fantasy that it was my fault and you simply fell victim to an instinct for self preservation. Your heart wasn't strong enough for the conflict aroused within it. This disease of erroneous thought in my conscious state is incurable without you, and alas, it is the force pushing you away. A modern day tragedy that would bring Shakespeare to his knees.
