This is why we can’t be together…
I know what I want;
while you’re still figuring things out
It is not just the meeting of the eyes;
but I want a meeting of minds.
It’s not just conversations
but a deeper kind of connection;
the one that transcends beyond words and silences.
I don’t want to play safe or be in a guessing game;
It’s either you’ll become my “ride or die” or nothing at all.
But let’s not confuse ourselves—
I don’t want you to hold my hand if you’re not ready.
I don’t want you to figure things out while I am in the picture because my season of planting was over, and I don’t mind taking a longer time for my season of waiting to be that worth it.
But your seasons of knowing, of breaking free, of figuring things out what’s in it for you—are now. So, take your time—make mistakes, be in the moment, experience heartache, test your limits, and be comfortable with your own growth as you navigate from one season to the other.
So I must say;
I am grateful our paths cross because you remind me a lot when I am still figuring things out for myself too. Sucks that we have to end it here, but we have to, I have to because it’s clear—this isn’t for us.
