I remember when we first met and you talked about yourself as if you were chronically single (just like I talk about myself today). You said: "I've been single for 7 years, and I'm completely fine with it." Yeah, I know you're strong and don't need anyone, but I wanted so badly for you to make space for me in your life.
Maybe you don't need someone to drive for you, maybe you don't need someone who steps up to pay the bills at the end of the month, maybe you don't need someone to fix the shower... maybe you really don't. But I wished you had chosen me to be in your life. I wished you hadn't run away. I wished you had stayed...
We talked so many times about how we were co-creating a beer together, those were some of your last words... Was it a lie? Do you really not want to meet up with me?
I know you don't need this, but maybe I do. No, no. I don't need it either. But maybe I want to... Well, that depends on how far away you've let yourself drift over this time, because I would never force something that isn't natural. But if you've still chosen to stay close... Yeah, it would have been amazing to be someone you definitely didn't need, but chose to have around anyway.
I would have loved to be your person.
