Cause we know we’re better
And we prove we’re bette...

Vince,
I wonder how you can still sleep at night knowing that you hurt the woman you claim to love? She did everything for you, she gave up everything just for you, yet you chose to hurt her instead. If you’re wondering how she is, well, she is doing just fine with me beside her. I will take care of her and never hurt her the way you did, you didn’t even let her explain herself and jumped to conc...

I stared at the screen in sorrow. How such anger could permeate the screen and be felt, even in my own heart, was a mystery I did not know the answer to. He was miserable, that much was clear. Miserable and angry. But what upset me most was that my first thought was what I could do better to help him not feel that way.

My Dearest,
I'm sorry I'll never be what you want. I never brought you flowers after your performance. I held your hand, but not enough. I should've held on forever, but I couldn't. I am not the one you need.

There was shuffling and squeaking on the floor below as we sat perched in the bleachers.
