Beloved Indifference

: Why are you crying, you fool?
: I was missing you terribly.
: So that's why you're looking through old writings?
: What are the chances you'll return?
: Don't cry like an idiot! And return? I'm here, aren't I!
: If even your neglect sometimes feels like home…how much deeper would love grow? When I can't find you, I'm utterly lost.
: You understand me completely, exactly as I am—reading all your words, I'm certain of this.
