"I love you," she says. And I freeze up as my heart beats hard. It's nothing that you haven't told me before, only this time with words. What can I say? I can't express myself fully to you. It would be disrespectful to your current relationship. I just wish I could date you. I want to wake up next to you and fall asleep holding you. I want to go on adventures with you. I want to do nothing at all with you, my favorite company. We haven't even known each other for long. Or have we met in every life time? My silence drags on and you try to fill it, but only noises come out. Words are hard huh? I'm over complicating this. Do I love you? Of course. "I love you too." And that's the last thing we say, from six feet away, before she leaves on a one-way flight to the opposite side of the world. Come back to me sooner rather than later ok? I love you too.
