it probably doesn’t bode well for us,
if im excited to see you leave for two weeks
so that i may enjoy my time to myself
not to philander & experiment
but to indulge in a schedule not based around someone other than mine for a change
to fall asleep stretched out in my own bed & not be scolded for extending over “my half”
to hang out with my brothers, reveling in drunken karaoke, & not feel guilty or ashamed for having “unusual” pasttimes
maybe i just dont like to share
maybe i just dont like not having control
maybe i just need to follow this urge
to see if my own extended vacation
from you
is best for both of us.
