I was a fool,
Thinking that I loved you.
Thinking that for that brief moment we were together we’d somehow connected.
A bond that wouldn’t break even though it stretched over a distance I’ve never learned to traverse.
I know better now.
I know that its impossible.
No, not impossible…
Just unlikely.
Unlikely that the first love I’d ever found would be at a time and place that would mimic it.
Unlikely that somehow I rolled the magic dice and got the thing I always wished for.
I know now I don’t love you.
I miss you.
I like you.
I adore you.
I cherish you.
I know you.
But I don’t love you.
We’re both too young, too wild, too lost to love.
So I won’t discount the time we had.
Won’t call it silly names or be ashamed.
I just know now.
I know I didn’t love you.
But I think I could have.
