I thought you and I are on the same flight
Ready to see how things can go right,
Guess I was wrong about it all
Because you only want to know how high you can get me, just to see how far I will fall

what I never said to you


this is for every conversation where I hesitated 
and each instant I second-guessed myself 
for all the moments that should have been 
and every "what if" that I've over-thought
I've lost so many opportunities 
from choosing to say nothing one too many times,
and what I meant hid behind closed lips
so instead my silence spoke too loud 
but hopefully you're listening now
 and these unspoken truths will finally be heard 
so this language between us of misunderstandings
 might finally be able to be put into words

YOU CANT HIDE THIS. UR FUCKING WITH ME OR U HAD SOMEONE ELSE DO IT

WHO SAID THIS:
 It's not that I've stopped loving you.
It's not even that this is what I want.
It's more that I'm tired of being pulled up to the passenger seat, just to be sidelined. 
It's not that I want this.
I really don't want to do this.
But maybe it's time you chased me. 
Because I feel less and less like you love me. 
I feel more like an object. 
I'm sorry. 
I'm sorry. 
I'm so sorry I couldn't just be enough to sweep you off your feet and for things to work. 
I'm sorry but I'm not going to keep breaking myself.  
I'll be your friend. 
I'll still see you. 
But my body will be my own. 
And my lips will be making rapid retreats from yours until you know what you want.

You.


You.

The way I used to look at you.

Your hair that falls gently down your shoulder,

Your eyelashes, and the way they curled up every time you blink, 

Your eyes, oh, those dark, brown, beautiful eyes, that I never seemed to take for granted,


And
You.


The way I used to love you, 

The way I used to say "I love you" 56 times a day so that you&#8217;d never forget,

The way I say "I miss you" every time we're apart,

Those times I'd hug you after every minute because I didn't want to miss every single moment I spend with you,

And the way it was so easy for me to see you as this

Perfect

Beautiful

Amazing person,

even with all your flaws, that seemed to make you more beautiful by the minute.


But what a fool I've made out of myself.


You see,

It was always,

"I used to,"
"I said,&#8221;
and &#8220;I loved,"

I, I, I,

Me.

At the end of the day,

it was always me,

that was in this mistake I&#8217;ve gotten myself into.

Unrequited love.

That was the relationship this has always been.

I loved you with my everything,

But you didn&#8217;t seem to notice every,

Every effort I did to make you feel the same way,

But I guess,

We just looked up at the stars differently.

And It's too late and now,


I see that you&#8217;ve distanced yourself so much from me,


that we weren't just miles, words, or worlds apart, 

but that you were now a ghost that would haunt me in the home you've already made in me.

You took every single part of me when you left.


Every time I'd look at you, I'd see me.

But now that you've gone,

Now that you left,


Every time I'd look into the mirror, 


All I would see is a stranger,

A stranger haunted by the ghosts of his past,

And the ghost of his, which was

You.
