This is a list for you, a list that I compiled while you slept, laughed, smiled, daydreamed, cried. I kept track. I never forgot. I could never forget you. You have to understand though, this was never meant to hurt you. It is only a list of what I find to be true about you, a list of all the things I shouldn't be the first to say.
You are:
Blissfully unaware
Confused/ing
Great kisser
Wanderer
Traveler
Never satisfied?
Self-driven
Intelligent
Drifting
Looking for somethingI see now that you are looking for something that isn't me, and so with this list, I wish you well. I wish you well with her, and that she has the something that I don't. The something you're looking for.
- Your old lover, wishing you well with your new lover,
All the best
