Life is a crazy ride, and nothing is guaranteed. And the truth is; you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. That's just how life is. And I was always okay with not knowing what tomorrow held, but if I knew that I was going to meet you, I would've held on a little longer. 

Because you see, when I was running away from life, I ran into you. And in that moment, I knew that I had just found my reason.

You were my reason...

 The first time I saw you, was a few days after I was checked out of the hospital. I was taking a walk on my own to clear my thoughts. Linda was furious with me for giving up, and I was pissed at myself for doing that to her, but I just couldn't find it in me to fight the cancer.

You were walking down the street. And you looked so beautiful, that for some reason I felt as though I was being drawn to you. Like some part of me wanted to see your face and listen to your voice. Like I wanted nothing more than to just stare at you and admire your beauty.

You were crossing the street and you walked right past me. And I found myself trying to catch up to you, I didn't know what I was going to say or what I was going to do, but I just knew that I had to talk to you.

But then you disappeared, and I had no idea how to find you. I had no idea who you were and I didn't even know your name but yet I knew that you had already captured my heart.

From then on, I couldn't get you out of my mind. It sounded really stupid since I saw you for like three seconds before you disappeared into thin air. But no matter how hard I tried; I couldn't get you out of my head. 

The days went by, and I had lost hope of seeing you again. I even started to believe that you weren't real and that I was just dreaming you up. Because no one can look that beautiful. No one can be that perfect. The way you made me feel back then, scared me. It was like nothing I ever experienced before.  I had never felt that way about anyone before. 

After I found out that the cancer was back, I stopped going to work. I didn't see a point in working when I was bound to die any minute. So my daily routine was basically me getting out of bed, doing nothing and then spending the night at bars and clubs getting drunk. But then you came along. And you changed everything for me.

It all started on that night. The night we first met (officially)..

After having a huge fight with Linda, and storming out of the house, I went into the first club I came across. I was so frustrated with life and myself. And I was planning on drinking til I reach the point where I can no longer stand. I was so angry and drinking was the only thing that would calm me down. I would always drink my pain away. I would keep on drinking til my vision became blurry and my feet wouldn't carry me anymore. It was the only way I could numb the pain. The only I could forget the world.
