it begs you to reconsider...it asks late at night and in the early morning when you are the only one still resting. it begs while you are driving and your mind is wandering. there was a time when other things were possible, when more was possible, when your friend made it clear that he wanted you to stay and you made it clear at the last minute that you had to go...and he walked you to where you were staying. and when you are standing near him it feels magnetic. like you just want that embrace to last longer, to mean that youre not really dead yet. and you thought back today how you were almost famous for sending out valentines instead of christmas cards, but this year you barely did either.
