There is a difference between

giving and taking.

There is a difference between

losing and giving.

Taking something?

Negative. Like stealing.

Losing feels like an accident.

“oh, I lost my pencil.”

Giving…

that means a gift.

“Here, I’m giving this to you. Please take special care of it.”

You didn’t take

anything

from me.

I didn’t lose anything that you just happened to pick up.

I gave it to you.

A gift from me to you.

Maybe

One day

I’ll change my mind

I’ll re-examine the facts

recall all the details.

Just because its me-

I have to analyze

and re-analyze

every piece

of the situation.

it’s in my blood.

Of course

maybe

I’ll still decide that it was

a gift

from me to you.

Maybe

after all the flashbacks

I will decide

There is no regrets

For now

now

It is a gift.
