She had bags under her eyes and frown lines at eighteen years old. She told me she was just tired and those were laugh lines. I told her I loved her, and it took her awhile to say it back.

I was patient, though.I started losing my patience for her when she'd be up crying.I kept asking her why, and that was dumb, because sometimes she didn't even know.

I got fustrated. I thought she was unhappy with me. I had doubts.

I thought leaving her meant she'd find someone better, someone more suitable. It hurt. But it hurt her more.

When I realized what a fool I had been, I was terrified she'd falled back into arms of people who wouldn't want to catch her when they got tired.

I was tired. But not of her.

I wanted to catch her. I will always want to catch her.

I hope some day she lets me again. Even if we've lost each other forever,

the offer is still there.

I will still care.

I will always care.
