THE LOVE LETTER COLLECTION
 
ALMOST


oh this is so sad.

i waited for you, it's been years now.
then the text from you. "how are you? i've been thinking about you."
my heart drops. maybe its our time.

you say, "when can i see you?" and we make a time for the following weekend.

then, i call you to say that something came up -- i won't be able to make it. i feel crushed, i'm looking forward to seeing your face and holding you again but i promised my son i would take him somewhere. can we meet next weekend?

then, it happens...you say "i probably shouldn't, i wanted to tell you this in person. i got married a few months ago.

i stuttered, "i have to go, i have to hang up now."

then the text from you. "i'm sorry, she's got a heart almost as big as yours." luv u

oh god, it's been weeks and the pain won't go away. i'll never be the same. you have changed my outlook on life forever.
