"Why?"
I have so much to tell you. There are so many things you need to know, so many moments I wish I could present to you on a silver screen; shadows cast on a street curb, eyes that gaze out into all the infinite Nothings, a sharp intake of breath..I wish to present to you a series of cuts and clips. I wish to hand you a sorry mess of thoughts and ideas laid out on my palms. I lack excuses. But the few I have in abundance -Love, above all, rectify every pain.This dogma leaves me with nothing but justifications. Several parts of me that have secured themselves onto my very core have one sole function; to ensure that at any given moment I am presented with, my spirit will yield to you.
You will need no excuses..you need no excuses; Love, above all, rectifies every pain!! I am thankful just to realize that all I am is Yours, clearly; that for everything you cannot manage to give at the present time, you'd already more than provided for, ages ago.
And all this..all this pseudo-martyrdom, all the tears on those shadows and eyes between sharp intakes of breaths..is nothing more than what you -you being just you, deserve, from me. This time around, I am trying (and failing and trying again) to be strong enough for the both of us.
Please try to remember that every single time I stumble and stutter for an answer to one of those questions, it should always be "Because I love you"
