Chapter 13 - His world...

You were with him.

You loved him, and you want me to live with that.

Not tit for tat.

It's not buried

My memories will 

Revisit that...

-

I can't fucking help it...

I grew up with him, and you can't understand.

It's not so easy to not imagine you with him.

My brother...Not just another man.

-

Now, just imagine if I dated someone

As close to you as your sister...

If I made love to her for years,

And when we broke up, 

I fucking missed her...

-

Would that not change things?

Would you not see me the same?

Had I planned a life with your sister,

And tried to give her my last name?

-

Can you blame me for 

Hesitating

When you were once 

His world?

Can you tell me you have no love for him,

Even though it all unfurled?

-

How can I not feel some way

When I know that you 

Were once in love with my brother?

How can you not just

Give me the time to detach that?

It's not easily swept 

under the covers...

-

Didn't care if you brought up

Your exes.

I was the next shit.

I couldn't care less about a checklist...

-

But this is not that

It's much deeper,

You wore his name around your heart 

Like a necklace.

Maybe I got too close,

Too quickly...

Love can be tempting,

I'm too reckless.

-

Should have stopped when

My heart that discovery...

Waited too long,

Now I'm stuck with a recovery...
