d i s t r a c t i o n s

i love you.

for all these years,

i have loved you.

we have grown & shared memories

we have peeled off the outer layers of ourselves,

loving the true meaning of each other

i love you

and i always will.

upon hearing your name,

my fingertips will always immediately

graze my lips,

feeling your lips as if they were

just

on

mine.

but i need to focus.

i need to remember what’s important.

and right now, that isn’t you.

right now, it’s getting into Hopkins.

it’s being busy every day at lunch

at this society or that club.

it’s spending nights studying for the SAT.

it’s not you.

loving means putting you above everything else.

i guess that means

i never loved you

at all.
