and how much I miss you I cannot put into words though your words are the ones I miss. There are days that are easier without you and days that I can feel my feeling going away. I can feel myself fighting it--fighting the numbness and nothingness. It's hard. I have to tell myself that I'm happy, to be happy. I can't remember a time when I was truly genuinely happy. when I was with you I thought I was happy, I forget what that feels like. I wonder if you're happy, can u teach me how to be happy? I don't think you can teach someone how to do something that comes naturally to you, right? I don't feel anything when I think of you. that's a lie. I feel nothing with a hint of smiles. it's a weird feeling and it makes me nauseous. literally. it makes me feel dizzy and it makes me throw up. I still want to hold your hand. I want to lay next to you forever. I think of you and I think of nothing but genuine feeling. whether it be pain or butterflies, I feel something. i want to fade into you. I know you don't read these anymore and it kind of makes me glad. but it's not like I wouldn't've written this if I knew you were gonna see it. you know I don't care. you know that for you I'm an open book. nothing to hide. the only lie I've ever told you is that I've never lied to you. I lie to you every time we speak. I don't tell you this. I don't tell you how badly I want to run all the way to your arms and never let you go. I don't tell you because I know that there are times where weeks can go by and you don't think of me. I think it's strange. I've never been able to go a whole hour without thinking of you. I don't hate it, but I don't know how to make it go away. I don't want to forget you the way you've forgotten me but I want to let you go the way you've let me go.
