we never ended. we never even began. you gave up. I was ready to spend my life with you. we were kids, in love, oblivious, and carefree. the perfect storm. I remember when I said, “I love you” for the first time. I told you that you didn’t need to say anything because I knew you weren’t ready. I should’ve known. I hurt myself more than you did. I shouldn’t of trusted you. I shouldn’t still be completely and irrevocably in love with you. I’m here, I’m still trying darling. knock on my door and I’ll take you in and love you forever. just like I promised.
