a/n Clive's perspective this time! :)

You never thought

LOVE

was for you

You always thought

it was an exclusive club

that you were

i-n-e-l-i-g-i-b-l-e

from joining

and you didn't really mind

Things were

f/i/n/e

like that

..

For the majority of your

l/i/f/e

nothing

p-r-o-v-e-s

you wrong

until

Martha Costello

c.r.a.s.h.e.s

in to your life

..

You don't realise

for so long

((too long))

that

your relationship

is

farfarfar

more c/o/m/p/l/i/c/a/t/e/d

than just a

s|i|m|p|l|e

platonic friendship

..

You always

get

E{V}E{R}Y{T}H{I}N{G}

you want

All you have to

D

O

is put in a little more

E/F/F/O/R/T

And she's no different

Except that

theonetime

you don't want it

to be a

one-time-thing

it

is

..

Time goes by

and you accept that

all your ever going to be is

friends

-good friends-

but only friends

and

Clive Reader

who

A - L - W - A - Y - S

gets what he wants

doesn't get the woman he loves

because

love

isn't something

you have any control over

You can't

Buy it

Fake it

Force it

Like everything else

he's ever wanted

((

But the worst part?

She loves him too.

Both of them know

And yet

.nothing.

.ever.

.happens.

))

..

Love's like that.

Cruel
