I guess it's selfish of me to wish you were unhappy, because sometimes, I just wish you were by my side. I ask myself how its possible to miss someone who was never yours to begin with. I ask myself how my heart can hurt so much for someone who never wanted it in the first place and ******* it, it makes feel so foolish to be sitting here, sipping on whiskey neat as the ocean passes me by. Because I will always be an ocean away from you, and you will be seated at that bar, giving your heart to another.
I will always be an ocean. You a life boat trying to get to shore. I, stormy waves bringing destruction to those who I love, and you there to pick up the pieces.
There is no metaphor here. The truth of the matter is, I can sit here and pretend you were the only one at fault, when truthfully, I did more damage than you. My fear of losing something I never truly had, destroyed a friendship on the cusp of creation and my spite destroyed every relationship with loved ones either of us could have had. I hate myself everyday.
As much as I want to be the good person who tells our friends they can still see you, I hate when they show you kindness and for what? I ****** up too and realizing that was harder than losing you.
