"Babe, you were my last thought in 2014, and now you're my first thought in 2015... I love you." That's what I texted you last year, at midnight, on New Years Eve. You replied with, "Aw, thanks." It's December 28th, 2015, and I haven't gone a day this year without you on my mind. I don't think anyone understands what I feel towards you, you especially don't. I feel like at one point you might have loved me.  Now I feel like you tolerate me, but even that can only last for so long. I've spent a year loving someone who didn't love me back.  I've spent a year trying to make things work, with someone who never cared to try.  I don't think it was the healthiest year for me.  But the thing is, I can't blame anyone for it. It's been my choice, and it always has been.  I choose to make this year about you, I choose to put you first, I keep picking you. Will 2016 be another year of you?  I guess it's my choice, let's see what I pick.

Year of You
