2:24 am



i wish you the best
but i wish you could feel how I do
the late nights spent rereading every word you wrote to me
the pity everyone gives me when they realize you’re not mine anymore
especially from the two friends who helped me off the bathroom floor the day you ended it
you didn't experience the harshness of trying to not break down in class
or the days i would sleep 15 hours because the only time I can see you is in my dreams
you got to enjoy life while I was wilting words you will never read
