a mess of semi-romantic thoughts

I love you.

But I am not saying goodbye.

But I need to know if we pull through.

Does pretending to be okay count?

I end up thinking about how much I need you.

You still help me more than you know.

And I wish you would tell me how.

I'm struggling to even think straight But I hear your voice just fine.

I quietly beg you to keep me safe From thoughts beating down on me.

Even our worst nights turn out okay Our love finds its way through.

We don’t need exciting adventures Time with you will always be amazing.

I want to strip myself of my past So we can be happier in the present.

Anything short of forever with you Will be far too short.

Waiting for you feels like an eternity But it is well worth it in the end.

I just wanted to get away from the pain But disappointing you hurt much more.

You don't need to worry about me Even when I tear myself apart.

I hate when I know you are upset And I am not there to comfort you.
