compassion in a can
i hate learning new things about myself that make me unhappy. i've known all along, but i've tried to supress it. all these old,wise people tell me how hard it'll be for me later on in life because of it, and i've tried not to let it get to me. but i think they could be right, and even if grayson says they're wrong, i think she knows deep down that they aren't. but i love her for being on my side, or pretending to be, even if she isn't.
i'm remembering something he said the night we met, before i knew he was moving away and before i knew he liked me too. we were talking about "ideas". you know, like how people enjoy "the idea of things".. (something i always talk about). he said that she told him she was ready for love, but she really wasn't. he said she enjoyed talking about how wonderful it would be and how she was tired of waiting for it. he said that when it looked her in the face she turned away and didn't look back.
i want that feeling back, and i want it with someone else.
