Watching you die

I kept what you had blogged me on my computer. That was 4 years ago when it brought me to tears. Re-reading it had the same effect on me today because I love you. And I know that that doesn't matter to you now, but I hope that I will matter to you again, at some point. Right now, I'm learning to be patient. But I hope you know that I will always be there for you. I think you know that, and a little part of you feels guilty about running to me as a last resort, without really knowing what to do with our friendship. But you can't quite deal with the latter right now. I don't mind, I have my own life to lead too and it is very full. And as much as I'd love for you to be in it, I know I can't be demanding, You are, after all, still so young. You'll somehow always be 16 to me.

sigh. some parts of this post resonated with me greatly. you've articulated words that have been left hanging.

we're probably speaking in different contexts but thank you for letting me appropriate your words into my context.

miss you babe

You can always appropriate my words! Anyway I miss having you here. You understand my asian angst.
