I wonder, is she everything I wanted to be for you?
This is something you told me the day after the night we met.
It was just you and I, alone in the quiet, almost in love.

You wanted me, you showed me how much you wanted me, and I knew.
You said you didnt know.
And so I was determined.
You were a tough one to crack.
You were quiet, intellectual, and enjoyed the comfort of your own space.
I thought to myself how perfect this was going to be.
Finally, someone who was as introverted and peaceful as I was.
Someone who enjoyed the simplicity and the natural state of being.
Someone who was so passionate about what he does.
You saw love as a distraction from the career-oriented life you had set for yourself.
But I wasnt, and I know I couldnt be.
I cant help but feel disappointed, but Im glad youve found her.
But still, I wonder, is she everything I wanted to be for you?
Has she finally made you change your mind about what youd told me before?
Do you finally see a future with your own family?
And are you happy?
If she has, and if you are, maybe thats all that should matter.
I hope youve opened your heart to love and all that it has to offer.
Even if it doesnt come from me.
