All this time… turns out you felt the same.
I thought I was the only one hurting without your presence—
turns out you were too.
I thought I was the only one who cared, even after you left—
turns out you did too.
I thought I was the only one who wasn’t over you—
turns out you weren’t either.
I thought I was the only one who got jealous
when you mentioned other girls—
turns out you were too.
I thought I was the only one holding on to what we had—
but maybe you never really let go either.
I thought I was the only one rewriting our story in my head—
but maybe you were just as afraid
to say it out loud.
And maybe,
just maybe,
we both lost something
we still wanted to keep.
