People never seem try hard enough do they? In the moment, we don't know how to make things better, but later, what we should have done is all so obvious. Even though it's too probably too late. Even though I've already lost you. Through all of the screams and the fighting, I don't know why you didn't leave years ago.
You were probably just like me. You probably felt the same emotions that drowned me every night ( like an overflowing bubble bath filled with the sticky eucalyptus body wash that I used to use which you loved) and just wanted to submerge yourself into the distant feeling of high school years ago when we were infatuated with each other's mannerisms and movements.
It's a shame that I ended up being allergic to eucalyptus and had to change to a summertime coconut (which I thought was refreshing, but you thought it was sickening).
I thought I knew who you were. I thought you knew who I was and who I wanted to be.
Now my heart hurts because we eventually realized that we both wanted different things for the future.
And it's a damn shame.
