I wish I was fortunate enough to have never known you. I wish I was one of the billions of people in the world that don't know you exist.

I've thought about calling you so many times since you left. I still have your phone number memorized. Each time I call someone, I start typing your digits, then remember. And while I remember your phone number, and many other things about you, such as the fact that you hate chocolate ice cream, but love chocolate chip cookies, other people don't even know your name of the color of your eyes.

They are a chocolate brown that turns into pure gold when the sun hits just right. Oh god, I wish I could forget your eyes. So here I am lying in my bed, sobbing and holding my old teddy bear, while someone else in the world sees you and doesn't feel anything.
