Late night thoughts,
I STILL remember how we first started talking, it was definitely irony how everything happened. I remember when we started talking on AIM, day by day, and then it led to the daily phone conversations. I remember you telling me that you weren’t a phone person. By the end of it all, I miss the way that we used to stay on the phone until 3AM, I miss the way I would call you every morning when I was walking to 0 period just to hear your voice and wake you up for school and how you would call me at night to let your voice sooth me to sleep. I never had to ask of you for any communication, I just knew that whenever I got home, I would automatically hit my computer and sign on AIM and wait for you or you would be already there. I knew that every night, I could look forward to seeing your name light up on my phone. Every day, you would tell me about your day and you would listen to mine. We would always joke around, laugh, and talk about things that we would look forward to, we never ran out of topics.
I still remember how upset you got when I ruined your surprise, yet it was the most adorable thing. I remember when we met for the first time, I remember our first kiss, I just remember that moment when it all came together. Every single time after that, every single time I got to see you, you never failed to make the moment any more special. The beauty of the not seeing you every week made me miss you more and more, but it just gave us every single moment to cherish. The way we would spend our time in my community and I would have to sneak around just to spend 5 minutes with you. I admire the way you took taxis to see me, the effort you made to go out of your way to come a long ways.
The things you did for me were and are STILL unbelievable. Every time I look back, I admire everything you did for me, whether it was a simple phone call to you spending the night. You weren’t only my boyfriend, you were my best friend at the same time. You were the person that I could always count on, through the thick and thin. Nothing can compare to the relationship that we had. It is sad to think that my mentality for one was set so high by you that it has come to disappointments for me.
Through it all, I am proud of the person you have become. You were the gentleman that every girl dreamed of and I am glad that I was able to have that experience with you. You are somebody that nobody should mistreat, you have dreams and ambition. Whenever I see your updates on Facebook in my news feed or your updates on Tumblr, I am glad that you are aspiring the dreams and goals we once talked about. Your drive to become the best of the best will reach you, you are one of the greatest and strongest people I know.
To this day, even if we don’t keep in touch anymore, whenever I see your picture or hear your name, my heart still skips a beat and I can’t help but smile thinking about our past. I wish there was a way that we could magically become friends and keep in touch like we had said before we departed for our own ways… I am just glad that you’re getting where you want to be and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I long the day I run into you again…
You were the one that got away, the best I’ve ever had.
