Author’s Notes: Here’s some babbling I thought up.

it took me 30 days
to be comfortable
as your friend

it took me 30 hours
to open my heart
and talk to you

it took me 30 minutes
to admit to myself
that i cared

it took me 30 seconds
to stop myself from
telling you

and another 30 seconds
to stop myself from
holding my breath

because
you
tell me

that
you still
love her,

and she
loves
you too.

just
as much as
i love you too.

(how, i hate
the number
30.)
