It Felt Romantic

I’m gonna say goodbye now.
I’m not saying it hasn’t been fun
this thing we’ve been doing
but
it
simply seems a little one-sided, see?

I want to see you
want to know what’s going on
and I have sent you letters
every single day we’ve been apart
and
the lack of reciprocation
was intriguing at first.
It felt romantic.
It made me try harder.

But I’ve tried hard
and I’ve tried long
and I’ve tried against a wall for so many months
and
it’s exhausting
and I
do not think I can do it anymore.
I probably could
actually
but I don’t think I want to.

I want to have someone
who wants to have me
or at least
lives
close enough
for it be possible.
I don’t believe that’s too much to seek.

So this is goodbye
I think.
I will not be stopping by
anymore.
Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Good.
