I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing. - Anais Nin

Today, he fulfilled his first ever promise to me. Almost 2 years after it was made.

“You build up all these defenses. You build up a whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life… You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages.” — Neil Gaiman, The Sandman

I don't know what to do.
Today I miss your eyes. You have the most beautiful big eyes. I miss kissing your eyelids.
And I hate myself this weak.
I love you.
There are times I find your flaws endearing.
You, I need you to protect me from these men.
These men, who only want one thing from me.
These men, who I thought are my friends.
These men, who I thought are okay because they are your friends.
Do they do this to me because they are terrible friends to you?
But they're your favorite persons; so, is it because they know I don't mean that much to you?
Kings of Convenience was at Cloth & Clef yesterday.
I arrived too late.
Screw family time.
I told his friend to tell him that KoC was at C&C. He went to gamble for the ticket. And didn't even get it for me. As a friend, I'm very disappointed in him.
He knows. He remembers better than me. Yet he thoughtlessly did so. Should I or shouldn't I believe that he has little regard for me?
And to not feel guilty?
Like I said, I deal with my turmoil alone. Lately, I couldn't eat. I couldn't function well if my eyes are red and swelling from tears most of the time. I couldn't think. I couldn't care about anything else and I'm ashamed of it.
I thought you would be happy if I am happy too?
Why are you(or the lack of you that I love) becoming the source of my unhappiness these days?
I wonder if you know what it feels like not being able to think about anything else but a person.
I wonder if you know it's harder to function when you wonder alone; whilst the other remains oblivious.
I wonder if you know how much it hurts to mean nothing to you.
I wonder if you'll miss me when I don't come over anymore.
I wonder if you know even the surface of the turmoil inside me when I keep it all inside fearing that I would scare you off.
I wonder if you know that I realized it doesn't matter anyway what I do, I'm still losing you despite all my fears.
I wonder if you know every time I was there or anywhere around wasting time waiting for you to show up, was only to be visible to you.
Was only so that I can tell you to your face.
I miss you, the person.

Pick me up again
I love how strong you are
Pick me up off the floor
and let me wrap my legs around your waist
Suspended in the air
Like we're never letting go,
sets some ease in my chest
even if it is for a moment,
even if it's a relapse,
even if it's lust,
at least you miss me
Pin me against the wall
Take the life out of me
Love,
Lie with me
Hold me tight
Take your time, kissing me
It does make me happy
