it seems as though the
happy, excited, nervous crushy-feelings
have been replaced with
akwardness and unsure-what-to-say-ness.
given my fatalist attitude,
i take this as a sign
that this year, i am meant to go back
to that middle school romance.
it's happening against my will.
he is head-over-heels for me, but
i don't want him.
i have always wanted you.
yet you say you are 'afraid
of ruining our friendship'.
i'm unsure of whether this is the truth
or just an excuse.
what's the use,
if i don't have you?
i'm better off all day in bed.
better yet, i'm better off dead.
