Lovers love. Liars lie.

“To the one I could never let go, It had been almost a year since I last talked to you, but seeing you yesterday made it feel like no time had passed. However, unlike every other time we’ve found ourselves in the same orbit after long absences, I did not feel uncontrollably attracted to you. I don’t just mean in the physical sense, although I will admit any butterflies I used to feel have long been gone, but rather your magnetizing presence was lacking. For the first time since I met you four years ago, I felt nothing for you. There have been times when we came back together and I missed you more than I thought I ever would. There were also times when I wanted to make you love me again, only so I could shatter your heart into irreparable pieces. I’ve wanted you to be mine. I’ve wanted you dead. The conflict between love and hate has driven me crazy all these years, but ultimately I’ve found peace with everything you have put me through. I genuinely wish you all the happiness and comfort the future has in store, truly and sincerely. There’s so much out there for you to explore, so much for you to learn, and so much time for you to grow. As long as you never call, you never write, and you create a future without me in it, I have no doubt the two of us will find love and joy someday. I never needed you in my life, and although you were a big part of it for so long, I still don’t need you or want you in it, and I never will again.”

“When you ache, I come running. When I ache, you leave me that way.”

“I am hopelessly in love with a memory. An echo from another time, another place.”

“I get so jealous because I know how easily replaceable I am.”
