Don't, just because you're lonely.
Yes. It's in me.
Like a drug,
I can make people feel better.
Don't, just because I'm the only one listening.
You can tell me what's ******* you off.
I am always all ears.
Don't, just because I make you forget it all.
In truth, it's temporary.
I can try and save you.
And I will succeed if I do.
But.
I don't want to just be your emergency exit.
I want to be the one to start it all.
I want to be the one to **** you off.
I want to get under your ******* skin.
With the shallowest reasons,
I want to be the one you talk about
to your friends.
Yes, I can be your rock. I want to.
But I can't be your fire escape.
Before we're there,
I want you to know that sometimes,
I WILL be the one to spark it all.
Sometimes, I'm a mess too.
Before we're there,
I want you to know that it will be tough.
I forget things.
I will forget to put the drink back in the fridge,
but I won't forget the hard times.
Sometimes I will slip
and bring up a storm of history.
Not deliberately, but sometimes,
I will be the one to cause you
emotional whirlwinds too.
But I want to be the one you keep coming back to.
Before we're there, know that I love to write.
I will write to you, and about you.
Like now, I will write about how I feel about you.
I will write about everything
And as much as you hate attention,
some people will know about you.
You will be, or currently are,
my muse.
Before we're there, remember how I ramble when drunk.
I will tell you everything, even the ones
you have no intention of hearing.
And I know you'll do the same.
Before we're there, know that it will be difficult.
I will demand for security;
For unconditional love;
For your all.
But I will also demand for absolute freedom.
Yes.
I will do everything to make you feel better.
I will go the distance.
Go the extra mile.
But before we're there,
Know that I want the same from you,
If not more...
I will try to get you through a rough patch,
keep your head above the water,
but sometimes, I will need help too.
Before we're there, know that this might all be a waste.
For many reasons aside from the ones
I have just mentioned,
this might not work.
A year from now,
You might be watching sunsets by the sea
with someone else,
I might be writing about someone else.
But I dont care anymore.
We might get there. We might not.
We might tiptoe off a plank 100 floors high together,
or just run and jump in with both feet
tomorrow or next week or next month.
I don't know.
I will stop wondering.
But take these precautions...
Before we're there,
I will see you next week.
