I kissed him today. And a tiny part of me wished that it would have been you. Then I remembered that your fingertips never wrote novels down my spine and your voice didn't sing melodies into my chest. You never understod the stories written on my wall and on my skin. In that moment, I realized that we were a fairytale; always trying to be something we never were. But this with him...is real. And sometimes, it seems, the better stories are the ones we write for ourselves.
