I never liked second chance tropes, that is until i met you, ya know? I didnt understand why she'd go back to someone who hurt her, or why he missed her if he said he wouldnt bother. until i realized how it was the same i felt when we werent one no longer. You didnt hurt me, not like i could convince myself if you did, if anything i smiled more, just because you exist. After our departure, the only thing living rent free in my head was you, Thinking if you thought of me too. Sure we messed up, but we always came back stronger, no force, no will power, nothing stopped us. i know you still blame yourself, but you really shouldnt. we both played a part, and maybe letting go for a bit is what gave us this fresh happy start. we improved and laugh twice as more, You promised you'd stay this time, and im sure. you never failed to be there for me, So whats there not to believe? Even when we were seperate, You would come running to me. I wanted you to be happy while we were apart, Id constantly check everything, but a conversation? was something i wasnt ready to start. yet you had the confidence, you kept your loyal word. "You were the best one" we both had said, Another life time, or in the future ahead, we knew for eachother we'd always come back. I cant see you as a friend, Youre worth more than that, I cant possibly save myself from feeling attatched. So for you, ive given this trope another chance, maybe this circumstance will make me like it more, Who knows, Its you im trying it for.
