We lock it away and sometimes disregard it, but it’s enough to remember each other by. Even though I’m not always there, and the intricate hardships that complicate my life, are not your burden to carry. I feel like you see my pain, and have a subtle yet distinct way of loving me, which brightens my day when I’m feeling low. You warm my heart when you tell me I am handsome, and although it’s not openly said to others, their is a kind of love that ties us together, but equally drags us apart. It’s a safe kind of love, one that can be intercepted or temporarily forgotten. But that can always be redeemed and replenished. You are a beautiful mistake to me, and I know you think I don’t see it. Your beauty and kind soul, but I see it more than anyone. And feel like you have the right to know. I never am open about my thoughts and the things that I keep locked away, are often for good reasons. But you are that beautiful someone, who to me, despite relationships, distractions or consequence, have a place in my heart, and I love you for the person that you are. I won’t ever ask for your forever, or even a functional relationship. You and I work differently to that, and at the moment, at this stage in life, where we both are, it somehow works. Amongst the mess of uncomplicating everything that is thrown at us, we are eternally together. And our plan is for some one day, you and I meet to fall together after everything else is gone and past and done, and we can have our time. At least I told you what was real for me and all your worth. I will never regret missing you. </span>We fell together those nine years ago. And since then, we leaned on each other in hard times. We confided in each other and never broke trust. You  have been my devoted best friend. My truest love.</p>http://bryanknows.com/post/23290780666http://bryanknows.com/post/23290780666Fri, 18 May 2012 09:29:00 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4821s7xQm1qzvj93o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://bryanknows.com/post/23290183955http://bryanknows.com/post/23290183955Fri, 18 May 2012 09:10:40 -0500<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/IunhUfwHDOk?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://bryanknows.com/post/23276525976http://bryanknows.com/post/23276525976Thu, 17 May 2012 23:53:43 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m44md5XgI81qzvj93o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://bryanknows.com/post/23172328832http://bryanknows.com/post/23172328832Wed, 16 May 2012 12:39:04 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m42se0uXf91qzvj93o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://bryanknows.com/post/23111414495http://bryanknows.com/post/23111414495Tue, 15 May 2012 12:54:00 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m42k69xfUN1qzvj93o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://bryanknows.com/post/23104745213http://bryanknows.com/post/23104745213Tue, 15 May 2012 09:56:32 -0500“I want to tell you everything”http://bryanknows.com/post/23087511390http://bryanknows.com/post/23087511390Mon, 14 May 2012 23:11:29 -0500
