My name is Dan.
You probably already know that but I've had trouble coming to terms with who I am. You see, my life was horrible until I met you. Do you remember that? I looked into your deep blue eyes and saw that we could be friends. I noticed how your lips twitch when you're hurt and how you always tried to look on the brightside of everything. You saw something in me that I had never seen, a light in the dark, and for that I just want to thank you. Thank you for encouraging me to walk towards the light; thank you for making my life worth living; thank you for showing me a love I never thought possible. You were my best friend until we were 14. Do you remember that time? I didn't know myself like I don't know myself now. But it was you who saved me and made me remember. It was you who kissed me and showed me that not everything in my life was pointless.
I am sitting on our bench right now, the only thing other than you I know about me. I know that when you were here we would sit and chat and share a kiss or two, and I would love it. I would be in Heaven, but that's where you are now. And I'm stuck in Hell.
Do you remember when I was diagnosed with an illness, and you made that picnic in the night? I remember you called me, and I could not answer. I was dying then, and you did not know it.
I always thought I would die first, but it seems you have been taken from me. I never got to say goodbye, or thank you, or even say your name one last time. But I'm going to say it now.
Goodbye, Phil.
