YOU

I love you.

I have known you forever. you are my first love, my first best friend,

the first person who actually understood what I had to say

See you... you are the only one who knows my greatest fear, my strongest emotions.

You know every thing I like and dislike

Everything I love and hate

We could laugh for hours together, talking to each other was a sought after escape

We didn't have to make time for each other because we wanted to be with each other

no matter what

Always and forever

You wanted me just much as I wanted you

You were my first priority and I was yours

you wanted to listen to my thoughts, my dreams, hopes and fears.

Our conversations led to discoveries, cries, laughter

They made us better people

But somewhere along the way you stopped caring

You no longer had time for me

We saw each other as you rushed out the door

or in passing where with a quick glance, you walk away

So please tell me

when did I stop being your priority

the one you talked to, the one who mattered the most

When did I become the last person to matter

When did jobs, studies, internships, friends, enemies, strangers

All become a priority before me

Is there something wrong with me

SILENCE

Did I say something to hurt you

SILENCE

Please tell me

I will fix myself

whatever I did, I will fix it

please ... I'm sorry

SILENCE

So we remain distant, parallel lines that never touch

we don't talk as much anymore

you say yes to others to get away from me

But it's okay, one day you will need me again

and we will start talking,

laughing and crying

we will one day want to be with each other

I hope and I wait

for that day to come

But for now, I see you sometimes

on the glass building

when you comb your hair

or brush your teeth

or go shopping

I see you sometimes

But I wish to see you more

Because no matter what

I love you

Always and forever

I love you
