I didn’t know the person you were when you were585Please respect copyright.PENANAAh6a6otUib
thirteen years old, or how life was like585Please respect copyright.PENANAE24VrxLHAQ
when you were six, and I never had585Please respect copyright.PENANAop6YNmJaDp
sleepovers where we confessed about our585Please respect copyright.PENANA5LOGQfTFfd
first kiss, or had a shot at being your585Please respect copyright.PENANADOP3cSGDDK
high school sweetheart, but I feel like I’ve known you585Please respect copyright.PENANAQVyutoY868
my whole life.
I forget that you weren’t there during the years585Please respect copyright.PENANAbbKtPffXNb
I spent trudging between households on weekends585Please respect copyright.PENANAUHNXfAEYU8
and you weren’t someone I could text when I needed585Please respect copyright.PENANA5POaJvYJ9p
a distraction; I could have used our stories back then585Please respect copyright.PENANAUiMPi256Ye
when every other weekend was a trip to hell585Please respect copyright.PENANASO486hqwV4
and a survivor story back to heaven.
I forget that we met when I was sixteen years old585Please respect copyright.PENANAsmDJBZxINT
almost seventeen, and you stayed on a skype chat with me585Please respect copyright.PENANA5WBqwwYZFN
for six hours where we laughed and talked and did585Please respect copyright.PENANArE4oNHflQH
other things with each other’s companies. I forget585Please respect copyright.PENANAPYjhARjYU8
that we rushed into things; our relationship585Please respect copyright.PENANAp7coeaOV60
was compromised from the beginning.
Sometimes I think maybe if I’d waited a while,585Please respect copyright.PENANA6keIIACk70
let our friendship run its course, maybe we could have585Please respect copyright.PENANA6lpkbgl65e
been something great. Maybe you could have585Please respect copyright.PENANA08o9CWxAsv
loved me.
I forget that I never spent nights on sandy shores585Please respect copyright.PENANAgrL9K4qZPL
with you, watching the sunset on those Florida beaches585Please respect copyright.PENANAQZSuuZVD4b
and you’ve never driven through icy roads585Please respect copyright.PENANAKcbFz1LRus
or built snowmen on porches.
I forget that we come from different places, so often I585Please respect copyright.PENANADfNuuQLHwf
have to remind myself that you’re not just585Please respect copyright.PENANAkoxWPbcRc0
twenty minutes away; more like585Please respect copyright.PENANAym9Z8Xet0n
two days worth of driving, and too much money585Please respect copyright.PENANAXWr6z6R5Bd
to fly.
I forget that you haven’t spent my entire life585Please respect copyright.PENANA5GOZ2Ky8lZ
by my side, holding my hand, guiding me towards585Please respect copyright.PENANAPxARxUQt77
brighter times, and even when you make me cry585Please respect copyright.PENANAbIlvGT53ZZ
I don’t regret you. I couldn’t regret you,585Please respect copyright.PENANAKWL62tl9j9
not when you still make love flood me from585Please respect copyright.PENANAj2cGZ46RYX
head to toe, and I know, you can’t love me the way585Please respect copyright.PENANAfO0ftCRwhk
the love I have overwhelms me, tugs me through life585Please respect copyright.PENANAmRwqnefA2z
almost blindly, because well, it’s not quite passion but585Please respect copyright.PENANATA6yMu9wYo
it’s something, and it’s not quite romance585Please respect copyright.PENANA6E29a0jdKC
but it’s something so intense I can’t stand it.
But I forget, sometimes585Please respect copyright.PENANAfRYenNsrYo
that we’re like on two different planets585Please respect copyright.PENANA50IsvxITkJ
and it’s impossible to meet up when there’s585Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vo0GGCk5o
an entire galaxy between us.585Please respect copyright.PENANAP5zHZe9m6i
And I wonder, sometimes, will we ever585Please respect copyright.PENANAIwjI0RZj6M
make it?
