Two years we've been together

In person, he was quiet, almost robotic

In actions

And in time, he loosened up

Yes. I had something to do with that.

We watched cartoons, played video games

Bit by bit we got to know more of each other

Scared somewhat similar to me

We connected emotionally

He spoke of his past attempts

How they failed, how they weren't right

I was lucky I suppose

His message came as shock

No excuse, no comforting words

Silent.

I said what was to be said

If he wasn't going to love me, he wasn't going to love anyone...
