I had enough reasons to not love you but my heart skipped a beat when it saw you.
It slipped and fell right into your hands when we stayed up all night to talk.
Talk about nothing and everything.

And every time I wanted to say I love you I choked, my throat closed up, I got nervous and my hands trembled.
I Almost said it. I... I like You
I want you
I crave you.
I ache for you.

I found multiple variations of it but never really saying 'I love you'.

"I love you but..., " He said.

And I felt my heart shatter, the vase my mum brought broke and I could hear its sound miles away.
My hand clenched into a fist,
a reminder for my heart to be strong,
to continue beating,
to do what it's supposed to,
to just keep beating.

Strength turned into resolve.
It's okay I don't love you.
It's okay I don't care anymore.
