I want you to know that there are people around me who believe that what we had wasn't real. Because you were young, and are still young. Because they believe that since you never asked me to be your girlfriend, it wasn't a genuine relationship. I want you to know that for me it was real, every minute.
If we're being honest, I'm still waiting for the day where I understand where it went all wrong. You told me, you aren't ready for a serious relationship – "It isn't your time," but how was it so easy for you to walk away? To completely stop speaking to me? Why Couldn't You Just Love Me Back? I'm just another lovesick fool lamenting over heartache.
There's that famous song, "I Can't Make You Love Me." In it she croons, "You can't make your heart feel something it won't."
And I know it's true. I know it's unfair to wish something on you. I know one-sided love is a recipe for disaster. But I just wish I could know why. Why didn't you love me back?
Was I not pretty enough? Not interesting enough? Just not good enough? But damn, try questioning that to my broken heart. Try telling that to my hands and how badly they want to text you.
"Cause I can't make you love me if you don't."
I wish you did, though. I really wish you did.
