Dear what could have been,
Dear What could have been,
The first time I saw you, I knew in my heart that with you I would never want to part. You stole my heart with your smiles and words, and constant glances my way. Your pale blue eyes and crooked smile made me want to stay awhile longer. We are strangers and will forever be, and I don't know what gave me the courage to walk up to you and speak to you that day… But I know that I’ll never be the same.
That one ounce of courage was all that I needed to be able to make a connection with you, and you to me. In you I found my kindred spirit, and for that I have given you my heart. I don’t know when I will see you again, but when I do I know that I will do everything in my power to make sure that we get to know each other better. Perhaps fate will be kind to me, and give me the chance to see you again. If it were to happen, then perhaps I would walk up and say hi.
I hope you remember me if we ever see each other again, because for whatever reason you are still on my mind. I wonder if you still think about me, because I still think about you. If not, that’s okay, because it’s a little weird to keep thinking about someone you only knew for a day, and to still be thinking about them almost 9 months later. This constant thought always crosses my mind at least a couple times a day. I don’t know what it was about you that drew me near, but I got the unignorable pull to be by your side. The constant reminder of you always haunts my thoughts.
I can’t help but wonder, have I ever crossed yours?
Patiently waiting once again,
J.M
