You are not perfect.

You are going to fall in love with that boy, and you are going to let him destroy you in every sense of the word.

He is going to know everything about you. He is going to know what to say to make you smile, and how you take your coffee.
He is going to know when to hold you and when to leave you alone. He is going to know about that weird scar on your left knee from three summers ago when you tried to learn how to skateboard.

All of this is great until he tells you he just doesn't feel the same and your crying more than you ever knew possible but somehow you end up comforting him, because he's hurt too, after all,
Its not his fault that he stopped loving you.

Flash forward a couple months, he's telling you pretty things and your going to fall for it like you do every time, because you love him. Your going to let yourself fall back into your old ways, your going to apologize for not being good enough, as if he is some otherworldly being , but he is just a boy.He is going to tell you he ****** that girl and i promise you will never feel more broken.You are going to come back too many times to count, you are going to let him hold you and touch you and kiss you, and its always going to end with you on your floor crying to your friends, swearing to god that this is the last time.

For months the thought of someone else touching you makes you sick , after all you've only been with him, but when you finally let somebody else hold you, and i promise, that time will come, you are going to realize that he is not the only boy in the world. You are going to move on.

What nobody tells you about moving on is that sometimes you will be kissing your new lover and for a second he is going to cross your mind.
