I want to love you.

I want to snuggle

on the couch and

watch a Disney movie.

I want to forget about

school and my chores

and my anxiety and

pretend we're the only

two creatures in the world.


But I can't. Because I don't.

And I can't force myself to

love you, no matter how much

I try. You're not my soulmate

and that's okay. You deserve

to be able to find yours.

And I hope you do. Because

you're amazing. And one day,

you will.
