you were pathetic Veronica.
pathetic. you wanted to run away,
because you thought you could.
you even dyed your hair a shade of
bubble gum pink. "a new me" you called it.
but I liked your brown hair.

I thought you were being foolish,
stupid to an extent. but now that I look
back, I can see. this was your attempt
at being happy. you thought that you
had to run away from all that you had.

and you were right.
but I told you no. that it was a
stupid idea. but you were adamant.
you would leave with me or without, and
I couldn't let you leave on your own.
so I left with you.
and that's what made me sad.
