Today marks a month of us being apart,
I've been walking down memory lane :
picking up flowers that died due to every
painful word said in an argument
with hopes that I'd water them back to life...
I've been thinking about you:
thinking about this day and how I wish it never happened
thinking about how you ended up outgrowing me
thinking about the paper cuts and how we could have taken time to heal them
I've been thinking about you too loud.
I was too proud to admit my faults maybe
that's why you hate me so much today.
I fell in love with you without feeling obliged to,
and it's hard to step out and walk away from such a deep emotion that I hardly feel for people.
I wonder if you'll ever read this letter
if you still read those poems I wrote for you
and maybe see reason to be with me once more.
but even if you don't, I understand.
Xoxo Teddy
