I just wanted to be close to you, and I’ll never understand why that was so terrible… Why it was too much to ask. I wanted us to be an ‘us’… But that would have taken something more than you were capable of giving –
It would have taken you loving me back the same way I loved you and you simply couldn’t do it… I just wanted your favorite things to become my favorite things. I wanted to hear my phrases on your lips and hum the tunes you always got stuck in your head….
I wanted to take you to the places I’ve been that you’ve never seen… I wanted us to inspire each-other to do new things we’ve never done so we could experience the thrill of seeing or trying something for the first time through each-other.
I wanted us to share things; love, secrets, a home, a future…. I wanted your life to become my life. I wanted to meet the people you love see all the wonderful qualities you saw in them – but more than that …. I just wanted to BE one of them
