You are not his backburner, you are his milk teeth.

People only talks about how heartbreaking it is to be a “backburner". But they don’t talk about how harder it is to relate to "milk teeth".

Although i agree being in the 2nd option hurts, but do you know how it feels not being in the option at all?

“What if i make you pancakes, but you choose to skip breakfast”

The moment your mind rest, mine would wake up and be filled with storms.

What if one day you wake up, come to your senses and realize that you no longer love me? — no scratch that, you might come to the realization that you never loved me at all.

What if once you’re fully aware, you’ll leave me as if i was nothing?

They said being a a person of convenience is hard, but how about making efforts for someone to be by your side but they disregard your efforts — like being cold in a winter night but they gave you their jacket instead of hugging you.

— To me you’re the only certain thing in a world full of uncertainty.

But to you, i’m your only uncertainty even if you’re certain in any other things.

You’ll say ‘i love you’, but i know you don’t mean that at all.

Maybe you i am not his second option, i am not in his choices at all.

“You said i took your heart, you called me a thief”

But it seems like it’s the other way around. You took my heart with you and left me hanging waiting for you.

Maybe we really are a milk teeth, because we are only meant to stay temporarily.

There’s nothing i can do but to embrace the fact that, i’m not your home but rather just a hotel for you stay in until you find a house you can call yours.
