I didn’t know the person you were when you were584Please respect copyright.PENANAvjKupL7Ij5
thirteen years old, or how life was like584Please respect copyright.PENANA4C7i1esJSH
when you were six, and I never had584Please respect copyright.PENANA1KI2hW6si4
sleepovers where we confessed about our584Please respect copyright.PENANACdBTNaZUTG
first kiss, or had a shot at being your584Please respect copyright.PENANAkcVWmJLczb
high school sweetheart, but I feel like I’ve known you584Please respect copyright.PENANAgf0uWhOaBX
my whole life.
I forget that you weren’t there during the years584Please respect copyright.PENANAadrIxfzder
I spent trudging between households on weekends584Please respect copyright.PENANAU4nmTZNoxI
and you weren’t someone I could text when I needed584Please respect copyright.PENANAZHpgJuNzIs
a distraction; I could have used our stories back then584Please respect copyright.PENANACnR3Sh0vga
when every other weekend was a trip to hell584Please respect copyright.PENANAq3vUG0qsbZ
and a survivor story back to heaven.
I forget that we met when I was sixteen years old584Please respect copyright.PENANAPkKd3ybdrC
almost seventeen, and you stayed on a skype chat with me584Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0EL1tIylA
for six hours where we laughed and talked and did584Please respect copyright.PENANAhpNlRhJq02
other things with each other’s companies. I forget584Please respect copyright.PENANA6mBRCks48a
that we rushed into things; our relationship584Please respect copyright.PENANApr1xQLrCVJ
was compromised from the beginning.
Sometimes I think maybe if I’d waited a while,584Please respect copyright.PENANA06UzBTD48G
let our friendship run its course, maybe we could have584Please respect copyright.PENANABicyXpM9T6
been something great. Maybe you could have584Please respect copyright.PENANA1zcmjd9cwd
loved me.
I forget that I never spent nights on sandy shores584Please respect copyright.PENANAsmSW7jXm5b
with you, watching the sunset on those Florida beaches584Please respect copyright.PENANAg1oI3QIIws
and you’ve never driven through icy roads584Please respect copyright.PENANAntbZJliQSr
or built snowmen on porches.
I forget that we come from different places, so often I584Please respect copyright.PENANA1BBuHs3hIZ
have to remind myself that you’re not just584Please respect copyright.PENANA29Qbmy14P8
twenty minutes away; more like584Please respect copyright.PENANABfQBthSJJo
two days worth of driving, and too much money584Please respect copyright.PENANAogSX75FIhS
to fly.
I forget that you haven’t spent my entire life584Please respect copyright.PENANAzlDdmFpEjP
by my side, holding my hand, guiding me towards584Please respect copyright.PENANAFNhOsR9pjG
brighter times, and even when you make me cry584Please respect copyright.PENANAch88VvMzh1
I don’t regret you. I couldn’t regret you,584Please respect copyright.PENANAjRdK71UZFh
not when you still make love flood me from584Please respect copyright.PENANAAkwomZwrbp
head to toe, and I know, you can’t love me the way584Please respect copyright.PENANAnmfSdHny69
the love I have overwhelms me, tugs me through life584Please respect copyright.PENANA8eO9onS2QM
almost blindly, because well, it’s not quite passion but584Please respect copyright.PENANAsiB5TbseKk
it’s something, and it’s not quite romance584Please respect copyright.PENANAJaSOyfCDGV
but it’s something so intense I can’t stand it.
But I forget, sometimes584Please respect copyright.PENANAgUgk6Ed0OY
that we’re like on two different planets584Please respect copyright.PENANAFMzcndNNUB
and it’s impossible to meet up when there’s584Please respect copyright.PENANATbpG78gAwa
an entire galaxy between us.584Please respect copyright.PENANAnz8wLdx1L6
And I wonder, sometimes, will we ever584Please respect copyright.PENANAczgh5leLlx
make it?
