shay mitchell for raven and lily
it’s hard for me to say that i like being alone because there are two different kinds of alone. there’s that cold, empty alone where you feel unwanted and you’re not entirely sure that you’re real at all, when no matter how much you reach out you’re still left behind. it’s an alone that’s not something you chose for yourself, but was forced on you. but, there’s a lighter and easier kind of alone too. the kind you come home to after a tiring day, where you’re finally able to relax and there’s no one you have to please or entertain but yourself. it’s the feeling of an empty house that you can fill with music and dance as badly as you want to in. you can be genuine and vulnerable and you don’t have to worry about anyone else. i guess that that’s what i mean when i say i like being alone.
When people ask me if I regret falling for you, I say no. Without you, I wouldn’t be who I am today. Even though I’m still hurting, I don’t regret it. I don’t regret you.
