i never let you go,
truly.
you told me tonight why you haven't been to school.
what you said made me nauseous.
it made me sick, i wanted to cry and scream and kick and fight.
the earth somehow knew how tonight would consume me and made black clouds cover the sky, dropping a little bit of rain.
i realized i had never truly let you go when my first thought was;
"i need to be with him right now."
as if i could help this,
as if you'd want me there.
i wish i had seen the signs, i wish i had done so much more.
i'm so sorry.
i'm hopeless,
no amount of space or time or logic will make me not love you.
i still love you,
i'm so sorry.
