"It gets better, it gets better, and then it's like it never got better at all." -Waking The Dead

I took this picture when I was in the process of packing up my old apartment in {City.} {The Ex} helped me pack and clean the apartment. I had put this up in our apartment before he moved out. It was for me to see, to be supportive of myself and all of my big dreams, but also to be supportive of him, because he was so down on himself all the time.

And now I know why.

I wish you didn't need it anymore

I understand exactly what you use it for

And better isn't always doing well

I know because I'm better now myself

And it's true

I need it too

But not the way that you do

I wish I didn't love you quite as much

The reason that we never talk and never touch

is the same reason that I've never done enough

to show you that you never needed to earn my love

And it's true

You love me too

But not the way that I do

-That I Do, Wye Oak
