Timoteo

There's nothing stupider than a muke.
I didn't know I was in love with you.

You were the boy I missed every night as I went to sleep crying. For years.
I didn't know I was in love with you.

You were the boy whose image I attached to every love song I heard. Even the ones we sang in church.
I didn't know I was in love with you.

You were the boy I told: I love you, I care about you. I said I was jealous of your dog.
I didn't know I was in love with you.

There's nothing stupider than a muke.

Last week, I had to tell a man I wasn't in love with him. Because I had to think, long and hard, about what love meant, and what kind of love I wanted.

And I didn't know until then that I have been in love with you the whole time.

And I told you today.
Eight years later.

You said, "I know."

But you don't feel the same way.
I didn't expect you would...
But I had to tell you anyway.
