i can't write these things to you like i used to. you are ... less desperate than you used to be and i am increasingly inconsistent and brimming with the desperation i used to see in you and i love that, i swear to god i love to see you happy content, at peace, at least, but i think you were a crutch or something too much but now that it's gone it's not enough. all of this to say i miss you and i miss you missing me.
