I don’t know if you ever noticed, but I stopped starting conversations first.
Not because I ran out of things to say, but because I started saving them.
For you.
It’s strange how someone can become part of your everyday without asking permission. You didn’t arrive loudly. You just… stayed. In small ways. In habits I didn’t realize I was building.
Like how I still check if you’ve replied before I put my phone away. Or how I remember things you probably forgot you said.
You once told me I think too much.
I think about that often.
Mostly because I never asked if you meant it as a warning or a description.
I won’t pretend I understand what this is supposed to be. I don’t think I was ever good at naming things that mattered.
But I think if I had said everything I wanted to say, it would have sounded like this:
I’m glad you existed in my life at all.
Even if you don’t stay.
Especially if you don’t.31Please respect copyright.PENANAbZDgFbxW36
