You know I've always wondered what I would say to you if I ever got the chance again. I don't even know how that conversation would begin. Although I believe it would begin as per usual: small talk and quick wit. But as it progressed you might be able to sense that I have something to actually say. But I don't know if that set of syllables could ever slip past my lips.
"I honestly liked you but I loved another and I thought he had left my thoughts but being with you only amplified my confused heart; yet my heart still flutters at the mention of your name" is not a great conversation starter. No, instead I'd probably ask you how your girlfriend was and heartbreakingly listen to that sound in your voice that tells me she's the one. But if by chance your heart was unattended, I would ask you to try again. There is something in me that is drawn to you; the flame that draws in the stupid moth. And I don't know if it's worth it to try and love me but believe me when I say that I would try. I am so sorry, you gave the opportunity to be happy and I was too selfish and foolish to take it. I can't imagine the hurt I caused you and I will regret it for a long, long time. So if, by chance, your heart belongs to the luckiest girl in the world, I truly wish you nothing but the best in love and life. But if, by chance, your heart is vacant: you know where I am.
