agreed upon

when we finally had that discussion what seemed to be a year later,
i knew we were never coming back or waiting after this.
we agreed we missed each other and that the rest of us was done.

just to hear that you thought about me,
made me miss you even more.

i never meant us to be this wrong.
i never meant to make us this toxic and enchanting.
i never meant to break you.
i never meant to be confused.

it was always you.
you never could be with me.
you never could settle down.

when you finally agreed i deserved that, you let someone else have me.
you let him take me.
you let him take care of me.
all because you really did love me.

and i left because i loved you too.
