I feel sorry for you.

For what the both of you had the potential to be, but never became.

A close-but-not-close-enough, a halfway connection, an almost-love.

I think, in the quiet moments youll miss her the most.

The way she filled the room with her laughter.

I think youll miss her in the loud moments, too.

Watching football, wanting to throw your arm around her shoulders as your team makes another touchdown.

You could have believed.

You could have stepped forward.

You could put aside all your doubt and trusted in something wild and wonderful.

But instead you let your rational side take over.

You let yourself be led by fear.

And you walked away, acting like what you had meant nothing.

I think, when its a lazy Saturday morning youll long for her.

Long for her soft, warm hand on your shoulder.

I think, when its dinnertime youll miss her.

I think, when you find yourself in the arms of someone else, you might find happiness.

As I wish for the both of you, and Im sure she wishes for you, too.
