Someone's going to hurt you at some point in your life, but it is up to you to decide who is worth it, and who is not.

I'll never hurt you
...Alright
It's true!
Yeah...okay
You don't believe me?
Not at all
I love you
...What?
I really do
There's no way...
I don't want to lose you
...I love you, too
-silence-
What's wrong?
Maybe we rushed it

The author's comments:
This piece was written during my math class while I was thinking about my ex and how we ended up breaking up. I'm writing this to show you all how "love" is merely a word. Saying it doesn't mean anything unless you actually show it.
