Even when you’re gone, I still hear the echo of your footsteps, the way you breathe when you’re tired, the tiny hitch in your voice when you lie. I replay it all, over and over, until it feels like you’re standing right beside me. I’ve memorized you without trying. The way you touch your sleeves when you’re nervous, the people you pretend to like, the ones you shouldn’t even look at. They don’t deserve your attention. They don’t deserve you. It makes my chest burn when they stand too close. I tell myself to be calm, to act normal, but the truth is I want their eyes off you—permanently. They don’t understand how easily you can be hurt, how fragile you really are. I’m the only one who sees it. I’m the only one who should. You think you’re independent, that you can make your own choices, but I see right through you. I see how you hesitate, how you second-guess yourself. You need someone to protect you from people who don’t care. From people who won’t love you the way I do. From the world. From yourself. Sometimes I imagine telling you everything—how long I’ve watched, how long I’ve waited, how many moments of your life I’ve collected like precious things. You’d be shocked at first, maybe even scared… but that’s okay. Fear fades. Attachment doesn’t One day you’ll understand that everything I do is for you. Every thought. Every choice. Every warning I silently give to the ones who hover near you. 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙋𝙊𝙑 After the breakup, I finally noticed them. The way they were already there, watching, waiting. Their “comfort” felt too precise—like they knew things I never said. Every glance, every question, every sudden appearance made sense now. I wasn’t just someone they cared about. I was someone they’d been quietly claiming all along.. Info in comments
