Grilled Cheese from a Foreman Grill

I love you unconditionally
I blurted out.
You replied that you had the same unconditional love
for me.
I said didn't think it was the same.
You explained that it was the same, however unrequited.
This confused me, because I was uncertain whether or not
You were using it correctly.
You either meant unreturned or unfulfilled.
I hope it wasn't unreturned. At least
Unfulfilled has the possibility
To be fulfilled.
Unreturned is a definitive no.
Please, I ask, if there is no chance for there to
Ever be an 'us', just tell me.
I don't want to wonder for the rest of my life.
I don't want to wait for something that won't
Ever be mine.
Just say we'll never be together.
You tell me that you can't do that, because
you don't know what the future will bring.
I search for something else to say.
Do you think there might be a possibility for us,
Sometime? Somehow? Perhaps someday?
Yes, you say, there is a possibility. An amazing possibility.
I sigh.
I want to love you for the rest of my life, boy.
I also want to stop loving you tomorrow.
I can't pretend this isn't slowly killing me.
I don't want to pretend anymore.
