These Are My Confessions;;


She thinks you are magnificent, I hope you know. This girl cares about you so much. Now don’t avert your eyes, I’m not confronting you or trying to make you uncomfortable, I’m just stating the very obvious. I can tell that you’re the kind of guy to pack his bags at any mention of emotion or commitment, so understand that I am not trying to scare you away. It’s just that I can see the way she looks at you and the way her composure changes as you approach her, but she doesn’t know she is such an open book. I can see her hold her chin high, clenching her fists in an effort to get over you, but as I watch I can also see her eyes praise you, betraying every other part of her that stands defiant. She is so strong, but your strength overthrows hers, and time and time again you fail to see the beauty she exerts. Her pain and tears you call a weakness, so she covers it up with that smile you claim to adore. She does all this to make you happy, because when you are happy, she is too.

Where did your affection go? Did it disappear with the summer sun, or are you just hiding from it all so you don’t fall as hard as she has. You’re the type of guy who shows silent appreciation, but often you will slip up and tell her what you’re really thinking. You open your heart for a split second, enough for her to maybe peak in, before you slam the door shut. I can tell she’s used to it, for she expects to be forgotten by you... she expects to be the backup plan on every occasion. You’re her priority, she’s only your option. You know she won’t leave, so you walk away confidently, knowing whenever you return, she will be there, as loving as ever. Want to know why this is all pathetic? Because you can stand tall and proud, call yourself a man and act all big and mighty. But when it comes to her, you can’t face her and tell her what she is dying to hear. Tell her it’s over, tell her you’re done. Tell her to move on, to grow up. Stop acting like she’s the one for you, and tell her she is not.

But you can’t, can you? You need her in your life. You could never admit that you love her just as she loves you. The only difference between you two is you don’t rely on her as she does you. Can’t you finally see what I see? Your life has taught you to be powerful but you have had to do it on your own. When she met you, she took after your strength, but she needs you there so that she can prevail. So give her your hand and pick her up off the ground. You don’t need to hold it and guide her, she’s independent enough to fend for herself. You need to stand by her side, and just once in a while whisper in her ear; tell her she is beautiful, tell her she is exactly what you’ve always wanted.

Cause dammit boy, if there is one thing I’ve learned about this life, is that the tables do turn on you. You don’t want to wake up one day realizing how much you need her in your life, because guaranteed that will be the same day she wakes up and decides she doesn’t need you in hers.
