I will move you to one corner of my heart: your corner.

Its been a long while.

In my head this moment played out over and over very differently.

A Thank You Letter To My First Love

The pot of gold that was you.

Youd be mesmerized by me, and wonder why you ever let me go.

Youd be casual, venture to act cool like you always did.

A Thank You Letter To My First Love

You would pretend you are genuinely happy for me.

But as you walk away, youd feel this twinge of regret, this pang of disappointment.

Youd realize what a fool you were.

That will be my payback.

For didnt they say, the best revenge is to be happy?

It just simply did not matter anymore.

Instead of that sweet revenge, it was more like two old friends reuniting.

It was more like having someone who once was a big part of you back in your life.

Someone whod be forever important to you, but someone you dont carry a torch for anymore.

I am glad, first love, that we did not meet again earlier.

That it did not happen sooner.

It was then that I understood what moving on truly meant.

I appreciate the old saying time heals all wounds.

I see the wisdom in cutting certain people off of your life temporarily until they no longer affect you.

Because that was exactly what I felt then you no longer affected me in that way.

So thank you.Thank you for all the memories.

Thank you for the heartbreak and all the lessons Ive learned.

Most of all, thank you for the rekindled friendship.

He has taken over that spot and he is here to stay.

So if you dont mind, I will move you to one corner of my heart: your corner.

And that is where you will be, forever.
