Stockpiled

 Stockpiled 

I loved you and I needed you. 

I overlooked the things that bothered me in our relationship. 

But at least I tried and asked questions. 

You remained silent. 

You made a list of things I did that bothered you. 

Instead of talking about them, you stockpiled a list in your head to use against me. 

And you sat with this list and became distant, possibly resentful. 

You even got mean, like I had done something hurtful to you. 

This was never the case. 

I was there for you, you just didn’t realize how much I loved you and I how much I would have done for you. 

We could have become stronger together. 

Why did you continue the relationship for such a long time if you had mixed feelings about me?

Were you even sure about it when it happened?

How could you do this after such a long time together?

Why weren’t you willing to talk about things?

Did I not mean enough to you?
