Thirteen

So nine years turned to ten, and eventually thirteen. Thirteen years.

And today it may have just ended. For all the same reasons from back then. And maybe a little more. 
I guess in 2009 I figured out that there was more to this, a reason for keeping up. But today, I'm prone to accept that that's the end of it. 

And maybe, it wasn't him after all. Maybe it wasn't all his fault.
