I loved you

I love you

I needed you

I need you

I wanted you

I want you

No.

I loved the idea of you

I love the idea of you

You loved the idea of me

I wonder if you still do

I know you still do

Love

the idea

of me

We love the idea of "us"

I wished us" would happen

But "us" did happen

And "us" was not what I dreamt it would be

"Us" was weird. Awkward. Different.

"Us" is better as "You" and "I"

"Us" is not meant to happen. Not meant to be.

We love the idea of each other

And that idea only comes to life when we are both filled with alcohol and nicotine.

Surrounded by others who are too drunk to notice our love that comes to life when we are not able to walk straight.

When our breath smells of vodka, sadness, nostalgia, regret, vomit, and broken dreams.

The idea of "us" comes to life when our mind overtakes our mouths and rational thinking.

We both love the idea of "us"

But "us"

"Us" is not realistic

and "us" will not work out

"us" will not result is happiness

"Us" is an idea we both fell in love with

An idea we both still hold on to

And let me tell you something,

I will always cherish

the short amount of time "you" and "I"

was "us"

and part of me will always love this unrealistic idea.
