Let's be wed.

Let's just talk to each other every time the other one is online, whether we're worried about seeming clingy or not. Let's just have long phone calls where we chat shit and never hang up. Let's never fall asleep again; watch 80s films and drink whiskey and smoke and hold hands. Let's go for cold early-morning walks and listen to Iron & Wine and not need to breathe a word. Let's spend every other day together. Let's never tell each other how we feel, but instead trap every secret emotion in the 'Black Box' at the back of our minds. Let's just keep treating each other like this means nothing. Like we feel little more. Let's waste the rest of our time together on awkward, unreliable romance. Let's let each other go. Let's think about each other every day but never admit it. Let's regret never taking a chance; never changing our minds. Let's grow apart. Let's build empty lives around something new, hollow and unnecessary and cold. Let's die. Let's find each other, in some unholy crevice of the earth, in years to come and knock down the walls we built to keep the memories of each other at bay with one fell swoop. Let's hold hands and walk and watch Star Trek and argue over which series is the best. Let's fall in love. Let's run away and get married and have children and live a life that, once upon a time, we both deserved.
Let's just talk.


Over and out.
