he was quiet.

and then he saw the hurt etched onto my face, his features softening, "this is why i need to leave you alone. i'm hurting you and i'm becoming too much of a burden, i'm sorry. georgia, i'm too complicated for you, for anyone really."

"miles-"

"i say shit i don't mean and i hurt people and i don't want to hurt you. one day i'm happy to be with you and others it feels like i'm being an asshole and i can't continue to let you be there for me knowing that i can't be all there for you."

and then he left me standing in the silence.
