Half a Heart

dear jack,

your family came over today. all of them did. said that they wanted to see how i was doing. they looked so broken and so upset and i feel like a terrible person because i was too selfish, only caring about me when i wasn't the only one to lose you. they lost a son, a brother. they'd known you all your life. i only came into the picture when we were fourteen. they say it's fine because i was in love with you, and you were with me. but it's not okay, because i'm selfish. selfish, selfish, selfish. only thinking about myself.

i'm a terrible person. how could you have ever loved me?

to the moon and back,
alex
