I make things harder than it needs to be. Its like I enjoy the melancholic feeling every time I think of you but I don't, truth is, I did this to myself, I was the one who lit up the matches and watched them burn to the end; flame touching my fingers, the ever so burning sensation I get when I'm reminded that my own self sabotage let you go. Its not enough though, to go back to you. Trust me when I say that the thing in life I wish I had the most right now would be you, your hand in mine but the feeling I get when you hand actually touches mine, the slightest bit, isn't what I expected. I made it like this I ruined such a perfectly good thing, and there's no way I'm getting it back.

- I wrote this in the past, and the next thing you know, We're back together and I don' know what to do with myself anymore.
