We once were two big lovers.
Perhaps, we are not made for romcom series, nor are we made to star in fantasy movies. Our love has never been as big as that one couple from the movie you used to ramble about.
When you questioned their fate and told me that you were sure that we were just made for each other, I laughed at how unaware you are of the fact that the love we had has long gone and dead — that we did not feel anything anymore.
I laughed at how serious you were when talking about the love songs we shared in one playlist, telling me that those songs were ‘so us’ and that every line reminded you just of me.
How old were we when we first talked about marriage and having a happy little family in the countryside?
Now that the only thing left of you is the hope you planted inside me, abandoning it as if it were solely my responsibility to care for it, I carry these little memories, wishing they could stay forever in my mind to remind me that we were once two big lovers with small hearts trying to captivate the world.
