A/N: And there you have it? What did you think? I want to explain my thought process behind this one a bit, I'm sure some of you will be confused as to who is saying what and how this conversation is happening. But I want to say that that isn't the point. I wanted to show you all a small snipit of a text conversation between two people.
The things that aren't said, the things that are, the weight of the words, the weight of the silence, that is the important part of this one. Not looking at the specifics of who said what but rather what they said, and what it means.
I think this one might be relatable to a lot of people, talking to someone after a while, having so much to say but not being able to say it, that strain. That's what this one is about. And I wanted to end it one a hopeful note. Talking, communicating, reaching out and trying to save something, or keep it going. Working towards better, working towards getting rid of that strain. That's the hope and that's my ending to it.
Please Review! I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one!
And as always, thanks for reading!
See ya! :)
