I loved you more
when your hands weren’t
wrapped around my neck.
You were just waiting
for the wrong words
to slip from my mouth,
so you could be ready
to silence me
before your anger
did all of the talking.

It’s scary to find someone that makes you happy. You start giving them all of your attention because they’re what makes you forget everything bad that’s going on in your life. They’re the first person you want to talk to in the morning and the last one before you sleep just so you can start and end your day with a smile. It all sounds great to have that someone, but it’s scary to think about how easily they could just leave and take that happiness away too when they go.

“If you don’t want me now, don’t miss me later.”

It’s kind of ridiculous that you’re expected to get out of bed EVERY day
“I decided on you, don’t you get that? I decided on you. I don’t want to go fucking other people and then walk around feeling thrilled and then sad, or empty, or whatever. I like the smell of your hair, and I like the sound of your voice, and I fucking decided on you.”
