So hey...

I want to talk to you.

I want to hear that you missed me.

I want you to hug me and mean it.

I want to be able to mean it too.
____________________________

I want this to stop being complicated.

I want this to be perfect, but it won't.


I want it to work

I want to like you as much as you like me but it's hard,

It shouldn't be hard.

It's not fair to you.

I'm sorry.

mustaches to eyelashes


I loved the music that I knew was playing across the way,

but the warm silence that was around us,
was better then that harmony they had been perfecting for months.

so someone, please, clap twice as loud for the kids in the back.

Bid our respect for us, as we listen to our own chorus.

You. Me. You.

HE'S GOT LOVE IN HIS HEART!

LOVE IS HIS HEART!

God made that heart! It beats strong and steady,it's sewn together with kindness in every stitch that bled into is veins, compassion braided into his soul!

he was part of a match set from birth but he was different.

He tried

....

but it doesn't matter do them, does it?

because in this cliche "dog-eat-dog" world, it's the nicest ones that get bit first.

And the ones that you like the most have the sharpest teeth.

so learn to protect yourself!
(not just from lust)

to defend yourself!
(not just physically like you cared so much about being able to do for your family.)

to fight back!
(not just with your fist that you aim at your wall.)

to build yourself up!
(not just with the weights in next to your TV.)

________________
Now she will let go of you pretty quick but her teeth will cut deep.

as much as you deny it

shes spent most of her life sharpening her teeth
like her mother, sister, brother, taught her.

But you won't bite back, will you?

you won't pick a fight?

no. you won't.

that's what made you so memorable, because you took it.
you didn't bat-a-lash at the FACT that we clashed
...

or that I clashed...you always seemed happy.

how do you do that?

____________________

hold on to what you believe in and don't let me damage your hopes.

listen to the songs I showed you and remember me in the notes,

while i listen to 'almost easy' for the tenth time in a row.

...countless votes...


music is and always will be my passion, that is something we did not share and something i can't live without sharing.

I don't want you to have to change, I don't want that from you.
I thought that was what i wanted but it's not. It's not fair for me to want.

______________

YOUR SOUL IS SO CLEAN!
so sweet!
so well kept!

....so naive
....so proud.
______________

I adored what you said and I'll keep it forever.
I loved what you did and i won't forget it, ever.

I liked who you are
and I actually hope this won't scar.

I won't call you my brother.

I've never wanted one.

I'll call you by your name, it's a good name, I've always liked it.

______________________
FLASH BACK!

to the night i told you i missed you.

I wasn't lying. truly, i wasn't.

But i guess even the witch from snow white missed her mirror from time to time.

___________________________

please know that i will never hate you.

I will always, always remember you fondly.

I was always excited to see you, I waited eagerly for your hugs, and i loved your smile.
__________________

I loved that you were happy, that is so rare, living HAPPINESS so hard to find.

and you have it.

on my list of dream qualities in the man that i will come to meet,

'happy' was on that list.
__________________________

I want you to leave this with one thing:

nothing was wrong with what you did, or what you said.

it's just that you're not mine, and I'm not yours.

heregoesnothing

Don't treat me like I'm playing a game
Cause baby I don't want to lose
Baby I don't want to risk it all for you

My eyes they do see
I don't breathe the way I used to
My lips they don't sing
I won't be the way I was on that night.

Anyone else.

you, him, her, they, them, that, it, anything, but not I.
________________________________

Don't panic, this isn't about you.


I don't like you, I don't like you.

I don't like your scent

I don't like the your hands

i don't like your hobbies

i don't like your hair

i don't like you.

i don't like your hugs

i don't like your voice

i don't like your sense of humor

i don't like your clothes

i don't like your face

i don't like your laugh

i don't like the way you look at me.
