it was always her - billie eilish
it was weird how we met, never had i seen her before amongst the crowded campus courtyards. it seemed like some sort of higher power had sent her to me, reminding me that life still had some happiness within in. her eyes offered what i had craved for so long, something carefree and natural, something lacking from my current relationship. it was an attraction so immediate it was difficult to ignore, but that came with so many more problems then i could have imagined. so many more problems that it could have solved.
