remember when we always talked of running away?

making the great escape?

but remember how we couldn't forget yesterday?

remember how everyone knew you?

how you couldn't let it all go?

and how i stayed with you through that?

how we didn't change our lives?

you fucking dick. 

i hate you. 

but i love you.

but we stayed.

and now, i regret it. 

i should've left.

but i didn't,

and you beat me to it.
