a movie,
starring:
you
and
me.

scene five:
–i loved you,
i have always do.
tears fell upon her
freckled cheeks,
–and so am i.
i tell,
–then, why?
–because if i do,
you'll always end up,
leaving.
–that wasn't
supposed
to be in the
script.
she whispered,
–i know.
i just wanted
you to know.

it was the only
way for her
to listen,
she might
stay and
never leave
again.
