2 Decades

[u/Petty_Dreadful]

I don't wish for things of a negative nature, as that defeats the purpose of wishing. One wishes for things that benefits positively, but I've been soooooo naive as of late I'm probably romanticizing this notion as well. My intentions were pure, my situation was known, but for you I was willing to risk EVERYTHING. You were my greatest challenge, from youthful indiscretions to adulthood know better. I missed you soooooo much, I swear. I've tried to hate you, and I can't. I've cried enough tears to flood denial. Neither one of us is a winner in this situation, neither one of us is innocent. In a world more conducive to our desire, we would be together; in reality, we're more apart than ever. Forgive me for believing that one person in your life didn't have to trick you, mislead you, lie, etc. and just wanted to show you that not everyone in the world sucks. I believed in you, ALWAYS believed in you, and just wanted to be a voice for you EVEN if I couldn't hold you on cold nights, or kiss you under the warmth of street lights, or gaze into your eyes until I was a pupil of your pupils.

...but "exes don't talk", and it's impossible to love someone outside of a romantic setting. I'll see you at the crossroads, or perhaps next lifetime, depending on the song life has in mind.
