Things I Wish I Would Have Said (Instead I Said...)

Go away
Disappear
Don't look in my direction
Don't smile at me
Don't cry because of me
Don't call me
Don't speak to me
Don't think of me
Don't dream of me
Don't long for me
Don't lose sleep over me
Don't tell me jokes
Don't tell me about your day
Don't tell me your aspirations
Don't make your little secrets, our little secrets
Don't make your little problems, our little problems...

...and please don't remember me...

...and please don't allow your tears to run the letters on the note you wrote to me, sharing with me all of your dreams, aspirations, and jokes because after all, I should have told you not to...

...but instead I said, "I love you."

I could have sworn that I commented on this piece, but it appears my memory fails again. This packs a punch that completely blows every shred of my being into shocked nothingness... It is of the high quality I have come to love seeing from you...

sin said it. if our silent disagreements were given voice, each individual life would be in a much different place than it is now. I mentally highlighted quite a few of these, by the way. thanks for sharing.
