You Said Yes
1.30.17. // 8:54 A.M.
And that day, I told you I was glad
that you made up your mind.
You just kinda laughed
but you didn't say anything.
After 30 seconds of silence,
peacefully holding hands,
with my head resting on your shoulder,
I asked you if you were glad
that you made up your mind.
You said yes.
I asked if you were happy
with where we were.
You said yes.
But obviously you weren't,
because that night,
you said you didn't know
if you liked me anymore.
And not only did you break UP with me,
but you broke ME.
You broke my heart.
And you broke us.
- J.T.A. (“I only dated you because I felt bad for you”)
