I wish you believed in me more. Out of everyone in the world, you’re one of the few people I would actually expect to have faith in me. Don’t let me down, please.

brain-food:
I like having someone in the same room as me while i’m working on a project. Especially someone who understands that what i need at the moment while working is not conversation but rather company. So we both can sit in our respectable corners getting done what needs to be done without feeling completely alone.

“If he… I will…”
No more. No more giving excuses. But also no more setting impossible goals so that you will be intentionally disappointed. Enough.

No forevers
And when I looked at the picture, I had no idea which was you. And that shocked me. Because once upon a time, you were a huge part of my life. And you sure left lasting scars. But no one in the photo looked like anything close to what I remembered you by. And I wonder if we pass on the street, if we would just walk on by. You, the perpetrator. Me, the scarred.
