heart: you have to hang on, she'll come back

brain: naw B. she's gone for good.

heart: but she said she still loves you...

brain: but she's not 'in love'. that's girlspeak for "hit the road, jack."

heart: she's just confused...she'll realize love can keep on moving in both directions

brain: don't fucking quote eddie vedder to prove your point.

heart: but it is true...she's just far away, so obviously the love will dim

brain: this may be true, but her actions while we were there clearly showed us that she wants us gone.

heart: i beg to differ. she just wasn't used to having us along anymore.

brain: oh, c'mon. anyone could see we were being destroyed, and she just kept on.

heart: that's not fair. you never let me show, and thus no one knew we were being injured.

brain: heart, you make a point...but i don't think it is valid. her constant questioning of my well-being showed that she knew.

heart: no, it just showed she knew something was amiss, but you didn't tell her what.

brain: fine, but it still doesn't explain why were left to our own devices.

heart: yeah...that really hurt me as well. but maybe she just didn't know how to act around us.

brain: well, the past is the past. what are we gonna do now?

heart: why, wait for her, of course.

brain: that's bullshit. she didn't wait for us. we just need to let her go and move on.

heart: now THAT is bullshit. you're the one who always thinks about her.

brain: i can be trained not to. you, on the other hand, are weak and pathetic. always belly-achein'.

heart: that should give you further proof that we should try again.

brain: why? so you can keep hurting and poison us with feelings?

heart: no, so we can regain what we once had. make everything right again.

brain: you poor, poor fool. you actually think she'll go for that?

heart: ....

brain: dude...she won't. she already told you. you've been benched.

heart: fuck you, buddy. she was just saying that shit so she could deal with the seperation. she didn't know how else to handle it.

brain: i think you're the one who doesn't know how to handle it. she told you point blank that she'll never be in love with you again...

heart: but...that can't be true.

brain: why not?

heart: ....

brain: ....i'm sorry.

heart: ....

brain: ....

heart: ....but...we have to hold on....

brain: sure, buddy. sure.

heart: ....

brain: ....
