I would have wished you happy birthday. I would have been a friend like you wanted me to be and wished me happy birthday. I would have shown you that I cared and wished you happy birthday. I would pretend you didn’t broke my heart a week before my birthday and the least you could have done was messaged me wishing me a happy birthday.
I would done that for you. I would have stayed for you. I would still let my heart fight my head everyday for you.
I still tell myself you letting me go was a curtsey when it felt like a betrayal. I still tell myself I’m better on my own when I didn’t feel this bad holding onto the littlest part of you. I still hold on hope that I could change your mind to miss me when you clearly don’t. I would have wished you happy birthday.
