The Way We Did

Before all of it, I loved you, and you loved me. But before all of it, you weren't you, and I wasn't me.

"I'm sorry. The way you love, you love with your whole heart and some. And I was scared and reckless. I wasn't careful with your heart, and you weren't careful around me."

The first time you saw me, you didn't seem to care. But as the night went on, through glances and looks, we had solidified our eventual relationship. We had solidified our fate. I think we knew what would happen, but sometimes I pretend we didn't. Sometimes I pretend like I didn't know we were meant to combust from the very start. I pretend like we didn't intentionally harm ourselves. Because if I pretend like we didn't intentionally harm ourselves, then I can pretend like we didn't think we deserved it.

broken hearts have two fates; to find their other half and be pieced back together, or, get smaller and smaller over time till there's no heart left.
