Do you ever see something that instantly fills your heart with red hot anger... so much that you burst into tears because you're not sure what else to do.
I let you become my happiness
And that's where I went wrong
The truth can be heartbreaking
But I'm done with the lies

I miss you.
I miss
coming home to you and feeling safe in your arms.
I miss
having someone help me carry groceries into the house.
I miss
hearing you hum in the shower and watching you brush your teeth.
I miss
making dinner with you.
I miss
sitting next to you watching our favorite shows.
I miss those
moments when one of us would lead the other into the bedroom…
Or when we’d
just end up on the living room floor.
I miss
hearing I’m the most beautiful girl you’ve ever seen.
I miss the
texts that said “I can’t wait to see you.”
I miss
talking about the future and making plans.
I miss
laughing with you… I miss hearing your laugh.
I miss
looking into your eyes.
I miss
spoiling you. I miss when you’d spoil me.
I miss when
you wouldn’t let me get out of bed in the morning.
I miss how
sometimes you’d make me late to work.
I miss being
upset when you don’t do the exact right thing and then realizing I love
everything about you anyway.
I miss when
you’d tease me.
I miss
taking walks with you.
I miss
having a man who loved me so deeply, sometimes I couldn’t breathe.
I miss you.
I miss you
every single moment of every single day.
God, I miss
you…
And you don’t
even exist.
Remember that day? When you leaned in and
kissed me? The day you changed my whole world.
What about that night when we couldn’t hold
back from each other any longer…
Or watching the moon and how you held me so tight
because I was freezing…
Do you remember that feeling that made you come see me even
though you had to sneak in?
Remember my birthday? Your birthday?
Remember watching the sunset? The promise?
I remember. I remember it all and I think about it often. I
remember loving you like I’ve never loved anyone before. I remember wanting
every part of you – good and bad. And I remember letting fear creep in my
heart. I remember letting other people get in my head. I remember convincing
myself that we weren’t right for each other.
And I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for not treating you always like
the rare gem you really are. I’m sorry for hurting you. I’m sorry for letting
you go instead of talking through my feelings.
I never meant to break your heart. I never meant to push you
away. I never meant to give myself the loneliness I had before you came.
I apologize for my insecurities. I apologize for wondering
if someone could make you happier than I could. I know I am difficult. I know
who I am is a lot to handle.
Mostly, I am sorry that you may not know I’ll never be
anything but grateful for every moment spent with you.
