after 2 months of of holding it in
i let myself miss you.
when you left I tried to shut you out
because 2 years is a long time to miss someone you've loved for the past 3.
tonight I read your letters,
black words on white paper,
ink minimally smudged;
and my heart broke.
it broke in the I-love-you-so-much type of way, because you admitted to caring,
you admitted to having a heart,
you admitted to the capability of love;
and your finally admitted to missing me back,
something I've been waiting to hear for 3 years.
it was closure, but it was an open path
and that's why tonight,
I miss you;
because after 3 years or waiting,
you finally miss me too.
