It was 4 years ago.
4 years since you first said it.
"I love you"
You pulled me into a tight hug as if you didn't want to let me go. I remember your sent so clearly, and as always it was perfect. It was the first time I had ever been this close to you. My head was buried into your chest and I could hear your heartbeat.
Is this when they would say, my heart beats for you?
Lies. It didn't beat for me did it?
Though I don't believe it now, back then I absolutely adored you and believed you fully. The words I love you made me feel happy, in a way I've never felt before. I enjoyed the thought that someone had feelings for me. It's as if those three words gave my life more meaning.
If you never spoke those words to me, would things have been different now?
If I was told 4 years ago that you were dating Yeji, would the present be different.
"I love you too."
I was happy to be able to say that to someone. I've always wanted someone who loved me.

I've always wanted someone to love.
