As I read the through words that I wrote, I realise that most are untrue, I realise that I was an idiot, but dear god did I love you. I loved you like Icarus loved his freedom, so much that he touched the sun, because you were all of my everything, and I thought you were the one. I loved you like Achilles loved Patroclus, so much that your loss broke my soul, and I dreamed of touch in my nightmares, and the way that you made me feel whole. I loved you like Dante loved Beatrice, so much that he went through hell, because god **** it I'd have done anything, for you to have loved me as well. But you're so far away, and you love someone new, so I have to pretend, that I only loved you.
