Did You Ever Tell Them About Me?

(3:04 AM — no one’s really asleep yet.)

Present Me-

Random question.

Present Me-

Did you ever…

Present Me-

Tell anyone about me?

Rhea~

You mean like… what we had?

Present Me-

Yeah. The mess. The late nights. The almosts.

Rhea~

Once...To a friend.

Rhea~

I just said,There was this one girl who never really left.

Present Me-

That hit harder than I expected.

Rhea~

Well, what about you?

Rhea~

Did you tell her?

Present Me-

There is no her.

Present Me-

No one ever really felt like…you.

Rhea~

That’s not fair....To you....Or them.

Present Me-

I know...But when someone touches your soul before you're even ready —

Present Me-

You don’t forget. You just learn to carry them quietly.

Rhea~

I used to think you’d forget me. That one day I’d be a name you scroll past.

Present Me-

You never were a name.

Present Me-

You were a season.

Present Me-

A soundtrack

Present Me-

A story I kept rereading even when I knew the ending.

Rhea~

What if we had met later?

Rhea~

When you were ready.

Rhea~

When I was less scared

Present Me-

Maybe we wouldn’t burn out. Or maybe we wouldn’t burn at all.

Rhea~

But would you still remember me like this?

Present Me-

I’d remember the way you rolled your eyes and smiled right after.

Present Me-

The way you called me out on my nonsense and still stayed.

Present Me-

I’d remember it all...Every version of you. Even the one I never got to love fully.

Rhea~

You always knew what to say… Just never when it mattered.

Present Me-

Maybe this is when it finally does.
