To: You, From: Me

Letter #1

I saw you this morning in my class
and my heart skipped a beat. You were
wearing new clothes, and it fit you.

We shared a look and behind it all were
all the secrets we kept. You knew everything
about me. You were my best friend. So much
happened between us. So much. But all
I got today was a smile.

I held myself. I didn't want to seem like
I loved you. I did though. I don't remember
how our conversation started, but I was
happy. I was also sad. But you didn't
notice. It's okay. I still loved you.

You were there for me
but you weren't here.

I thought it was obvious
I loved you, but clearly
you thought it was a joke.

Everything I think of
leads back to you.

I could do better.
You played me.
But I forgive you.

You gave me these feelings
that I didn't know I could have.

We shared one moment. One night.
But I was too scared and now it's over
and I wish. Everyday I wish. That
night could happen again.

You helped me find a better side of
myself. You also helped me
find my worst.

But all these words
mean absolutely
nothing to
you.
