i surrender.
this endless battle is not worth the outcome any longer.
nothing I do works. I am tired and weak now.
Time for the troops, or what's left of them, to go home.
I am alone on this battlefield. Everyone who once stood next to me is now dead or a traitor.
A pure white flag stands high above my head as sweat and tears run down my face. they flood the earth under my boots.
you win.
Are you happy now?
What more do you want from me?
i do not own much else...
You have my people.
You have my dignity, and my strength.
You have my integrity.
many are telling me that I gave these tokens to you, but they do not understand one's heart.
I thought you of all people would...
i was mistaken.
i messed everything up.
i thought i could fix you, make you happy.
But when i was trying to do that, you got angry.
i said i was sorry, that i'd stop.
But it was too late.
The blades were already drawn.
And I was the one who was cut the deepest.
This war is endless.
We both lost. I just lost worse.
We both knew what we were doing.
Everyone was against it from the beginning.
What started as a meaningless dare, ended up being the highlight of my summer.
I'm not ashamed of that.
But maybe it would have been smarter to keep our distance...
it would have saved us both alot of trouble, alot of risks.
I guess im not smart.
But if that means that I have you, at least for now, then it was worth it.
I have been alone for so long.
You have been hurt so much.
We were a perfect match. Our shared hate for human kind gave us something in common. I watched as you tried to make sense of everything around you.
And you watched me fall apart and then fix me again.
You made me happy. You protected me.
That is more than I could say for most of my dearest friends.
sure, it was foolish for me to do what I did...
But I wouldn't have it any other way.
Was I stupid for falling for someone I could never be with?
Of course.
But messing up is exactly what everyone else expected from me.
So, I gave it to them.
but I feel safe with you.
That is something I wouldn't trade for the world.
So what now?
This is it- ive left everything here for you.
my heart is open to you.
Will you take it?
Or is this really just a stupid love?

all wars end, but after war things are never as they were before.
the u.s. and britain became great friends, even tho they fought two wars, but it took almost one hundred years to do it.
time really does heal wounds, but wars have their reasons...and one side has to fire the first shot.
you did not fire that shot.
and you may have lost, but you can come back stronger than before.
your friends know the strength of your heart.
