the last eight pages have been about you
here is the ninth addition
i love you more than you will ever know
and that's okay
i know that it would only make you feel bad
all i really want for you is all the happiness in the world
i would take away your sadness and take it for myself if i could
so that you would not have to feel it anymore
so that when my throat closes and my guts twist whenever i see you with her
i will be okay
knowing that you have the happiness i wished upon you
despite it having naught to do with me
