Running Ragged


You're trying and so am I, but we need some time apart for that effort to do us any good.

Picking up Daisies


Yesterday I found photos of the centerpieces we made together and all of our guest lists for pretend dinner parties and everything else we could think of.

This morning I came across the drawings of our dream house and the lists of our desires for a life together.

And although I'm aware that you are happy where you are now, those were joyful moments that I'll carry on in my heart forever more. Thank you for your stay.

Just Too Strong


And I just hope you know that if you come home to find me at the edge of the bed crying with my head in my hands it’s only because I hate myself so much. For every time I didn’t kiss you even though I had the chance. For being too shy to ask you to dance. For not screaming those words to the world when there were still people to hear it. Because you see, I never thought I’d miss you nearly as much as I do every time you go somewhere else to stay the night away from home.

Still Settling In


Sweetheart, you don't understand, I am doing absolutely everything I can to get a decent hold on what's going on here. I know that you are helping me in absolutely every way you can imagine, but I feel so bad accepting that from you because I'm a fish out of water; I've got nothing to offer.
