A thing of tales

"We don't have the time."

"We won't ever."

"Then why does it have to be now? Why not wait?"

"Why wait?"

"For- for us to be ready."

"Ready?"

"Yes, ready."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Then come with me. Let them go. They don't even care."

"But I care!"

"And so do I!"

"Don't make me feel bad for caring."

"I just want you to care for those who care about you back."

"Why is it so hard for you to understand?"

"Tell me what exactly I'm supposed to understand."

"That I am somebody to other people, that I can't always do what I please to just for-"

"Just for me."

"No, that's not what I was going to say."

"What were you going to say?"

"I can't always be selfish."

"You loving me is selfish?"

"Yes."

"And that makes you a piece of shit or what? Loving me?"

"No... I..."

"Come with me!"

"What if I regret it?"

"For following your heart?"

"For being so foolish."

"What about this is foolish?"

"What isn't?"

"What is?"
