Long distance


Back then, I was oblivious, I didn't really know what.. 'True love' was, but I loved the fact that you were protective of me, I loved the fact when we first met we clicked like that  Even if we weren't dating, I thought it was cute that you'd stay up with me until I fell asleep just so you had that pride of me getting the rest I needed I loved the way you cared about me when I'd throw a fit or disagree with you You just put that stupid grin on your face and calm me down I loved it when we'd play video games to escape from reality, because hell, the real worlds tough I loved that we just naturally connected through everything we did, even if it was us playing club penguin at four in the morning but then the messages stopped You were quiet And so were i This is for when you let me cry when I wanted to die  this is For when i want me to hold you, even when I've disowned you  this is For when we sit up all night and talk about life, I couldn't imagine a better sight this is For when I didn't know who I was but who I am now And how much I've changed without you, i feel like a different person, some days i don't recognize who i am anymore without you by my side But when you came back,  I felt butterflies again  When we stood up till two in the morning talking about everything that happened when we were away from each other everything was the same, like nothing happened Then we slowly drifted away again. Like it always does. Sometimes you stay for long and others short. Sometimes you stay for a week Then leave for a month this is for you when you come back this is for when you leave  this is for when you 'love' me this is for when you don't  this is for all the times i cared about you more than my self, just to make sure you progress this is for when you left me this is for when you used me and this is for when I forgave you But I did it for me
