ten minutes later

my head was pounding and my hands were shaking as i ran into my room, trying to catch my breath.
i had finally done what i was too terrified to do for months, have her notice me.

and i regret it more than ever.

i took out her painting that i kept behind my bed and frowned. the brokenness of the girl in the picture looks exactly as she does now.

i want to see her happy, but i don't know how. i want to help her, maybe if i would've listened to her and waited i could've.

but no. i ran away, just like i do to all of my problems and fears.

because i am a fucking coward and i will always be one.
