i miss you. so much.
it's killing me that you might not feel the same
it's killing me that you might be happier now
shouldn't i want that?
i want you to be happy. but i want you to be happy with me.
you don't want to be in a relationship right now.
you don't want me. you don't want me. you don't want me.
one of these times maybe i'll finally stop denying it.
my heart is a fist grasping onto my favorite memories, and you appear in all of them
how do i let go when i trained it to hold on for a year?

i wish i didn't want to be your favorite. i wish i could stop caring. i wish i could say you're not still my favorite, after everything.
please don't be over me because i'm not over you
please don't move on when i'm stuck here alone
please, time, give me another chance with this one
this one who broke me, yet my heart can't seem to understand that
