Chapter Thirty-Seven

You’re Losing Me – Taylor Swift

I was one of the fortunate ones who was able to go to The Eras Tour and for the surprise songs of the evening, she sang this one live. It was the only time I cried during the whole concert because it had genuinely struck a nerve. Although this song came out years after the events of our relationship, I immediately connected with it and our final trip together.

I had almost gone numb and felt I was barely alive when he had convinced me to stay. I couldn’t understand why all of this had happened and why he’d done this to me. He never got me flowers and chocolates—that was fictional, but he did leave the room to go for a walk without me, and I was so panicked. He was remorseful for not saying anything, but he had such an effect on me and I truly thought he had left again.

The heartbeats slowing in Swift’s ballad really resonated with me as I knew we were dying, but it was one more night of perfection before I knew I’d be saying goodbye forever and that we wouldn’t make it far afterwards.
