loving someone that you cannot have is one of life’s most tragic things
because when you drive me home and i listen to you ramble about your passions and dreams i stay quiet because i am afraid that if i open my mouth “i love you” will fly out and i will not have the chance to reach out, grab it, and put it back away, hidden, where it belongs.
you will live your life and i, mine. but in my dreams, awake or asleep, we will be together, side by side, living.
