There will always be that one person.

That one guy or girl who changed your heart.

That one person who changed your life.

That one big love that you might never shake off.That one person who you will always miss.

Sure, youre going to move on eventually.

Youre going to let go of the thought of forever with them.

Youre going to get over them.

Youre going to fall in love with other people and with other aspects of your life.

And youre going to love your life.

Its going to hit you hard out of nowhere.

And all of a sudden youre going to miss the way they said your name.

And youre going to get hit with this wave.

With this tsunami of longing.

Longing for their touch.

Longing to just be in their presence.

Youre not going to be in love with them.

Youre not going to fall back to that space and time in your life.

But youre always going to miss how you felt when you were them.

Youre going to miss who you were and how you thought of yourself when you were with them.

Its going to key in your heart and your mind, no matter what you do.

And you know what?

You must realize that its okay.

Its okay because you are human.

You are allowed to miss someone who isnt in your life anymore.

Its normal to miss someone who used to be so important to you.

Its perfectly human to miss and long for someone who used to be your universe.

It just shows you how big your heart is.

Missing them shows you that you could have that great big love again.

It shows you that it’s possible for you to love yourself so much more now.

So when you get hit with the nostalgia wave that knocks you over, dont be alarmed.

Ride through the pain and the heartache.

Ride through the missing them and the lonely nights.

Accept what they once were to you.

Accept the love that they gave you.

And then get up the next day and begin again.

And miss them more.
