for quite a while
she would tell me about all her problems
none of them had anything to do with me
i heard them all
theyre her problems, so im not listing them out
but i assure you
none of them affected me, my life, my bills, my day
at all
but i heard them
then there was this guy
hes gone now, but if i ever bring him up
she says, why do you bring him up, he has nothing to do with you
so ok, nothing to do with me got it.
so we get back to life
but one day
she needs space
for her mental health
now mind you, she needs space
because after so long
of hearing all her problems that had nothing to do with me
i thought we were friends
and we were romantic
there was no doubt
especially me to her, no secrets, open longing, wistfull wishfullness
me, i mostly heard her problems
support
but after waiting so long
i got a little pushy
little bit of ultimatum
just a moment of now or never
and so of course she needs space
for an issue
she is dealing with
that has affected her mental health
that she now must work on
and that problem has nothing to do with me
