What I wanted to say was " leave me alone. I'm no good for you." but what came out was " I love you too."
What I needed to say was lost behind a tiny glass screen that was much to easy to break. What I needed you to see was thousands of miles away and forever emotionally unavailable to you. What you needed to hear was something I have told you a thousand times before but they say love makes you blind.
And with this, I wondered if maybe I was also blind to the man I loved. Maybe he had told me just as many times as I had told you. Maybe he was just a ruthless and heartless as I thought I was being with you and yet here I was doing exactly what you were doing with me but with him.
I bet what he wanted to say was -- " I don't love you and you need to get that through your head." But what I kept hearing was -- "I'm just not ready right now."
