you are what you love

here, between us.

Ch. -...it doesn't seem to bother you what people think of you...-

D. -...of course i do...-

Ch. -when we were in college ...i saw you talking to this girl... filtring with her & she was being really sweet to you-

D. -..oh god how i was in love with her...-

Ch. -...and then, when you walked away, she started making fun of you... and it was like they were laughing at me!... you didn't know?! ... you seemed so happy...-

D. -...i knew, i heard them-

Ch. -....well how come you were so happy?

D. -...oh god how i loved her, but it was mine, that love. i owned it. even she didn't have the right to take it away. i can love whoever i want...-

Ch. -...but she thought you were pathetic...-

D. -...that was her business, not mine. you are what you love, not what loves you. that's what i decided long time ago...
