the still beating heart
I think I shouldn't be in a relationship with you, he said.
I already finished his sentence before the rest of the words came out.
He said he still cares about me, but I don't know if he still loves me.
He said he still want to be friends. I said I'll always want to be more than friends.
He said maybe there's still a chance, maybe not. I hoped he would change his heart.
I thought I would hate him forever. I thought I would be unforgiving.
But my voice inside just kept repeating, I still love you. And I still want you.
Despite all that he's said, my hopes and fears are simply unrelenting.
