i read it in the manuscript of yours where you called me out. You said: “I jumped off the boat because I found a hand to hold.” My love, you were not paying attention at all Our boat would have drowned carrying the weight of us if I had stayed any longer, with no hint where we should go It felt right in the moment You were keeping our hands tied I wanted to let go before I sink us to the floor it was a test that I don't know if I failed or passed— but it was fate’s plan I couldn't change
