Old Habits Die Hard

Last night when you told me you loved me over and over again, after profusely apologising for everything that you did 3 years ago - I couldn't be any happier. Never in my wildest dreams would I think that you will ever open up this conversation and this box of memories we both swept under the rug and kept in tightly locked boxes. 

It felt like a closure that I knew I needed but never dared to think I deserved it, and it also felt like it was the beginning of something. Coming back to you is something so familiar and comfortable. Texting you again is something I'm trying to get accustomed to because ever since we ended things 3 years ago I've never really continuously texted anyone before. Hanging out and talking about anything feels like walls that we both cautiously put up has been broken down and today really felt like I was meeting you for the first time again after 3 years of being friends who keep large distances. 

The last 2 weeks were tiring, both physically and mentally. But I've never imagined that I would face you again and have you tell me you've loved me all this while. I am so comforted and relieved about things that have clogged up my mind the last 3 years. I'm just waiting to see what's in store for us. 

You were an old habit and I guess like what they always say-
old habits die hard.
