Fall Break

Something in his eyes was broken. I had once again asked for more from him, really, I'm just looking for reciprocation. I just want someone to run with me. Run free and careless. So what if we have class tomorrow! That's tomorrow. What if an asteroid smashes into Earth and we had cut our time short together to be prepped for class tomorrow. What if a tsunami swallowed this city and we were in bed, away from each other, and all we had done prior to that was sit and watch T.V.?? I need adventure. I didn't mean to break him. I didn't mean to make him so upset that the very earth he stands on turned to jello shots and caramel. All I wanted was to clear my mind and to say things that would help us to move forward. Sometimes it's a little exhausting to love another person because you become so wrapped up and so sensitive to everything they do that you begin to break a little. I don't want to take a break from you, but I do. I want you around, but I don't want to see you right now. I love you to death, but you make me feel small sometimes. You make me want to put this ring on my left finger, in fact, you promised that, but I twist it  until a red ring appears. Something in my stomach aches for you and something in my brain wants nothing to do with you for a couple days. Taking a break is exhausting. I told you all the things I want to do while we're a young couple in our first few months. I told you that. I want you to do those things not for me, but with me. I want to be happier than I have been, and that 's pretty happy. I've been content, but I feel us getting stuck in molasses. I love you. Don't take a break.
