dear just down the street,
I’m sure it was fate that brought us together. For years we had been in the same vicinity of each other - middle school, high school. It wasn’t until we had grown up and started working together that we actually met. Let me be honest - I liked you the first day I started work. I don’t know what it was exactly. Your calm, gentle, soothing tones with customers and coworkers, something caught my eye and my eye’s have been glued since. (Did you know I checked the schedule to see when we worked together so I could put extra effort in looking good on those days?) After I quit, I never thought I’d see you again. When you contacted me through Facebook I was absolutely delighted. I still remember out first coffee date perfectly. We grew a lot of the summer together. My nights filled with you were the best I ever had. I thought it was so funny that we both ended up in the same down and you were just down the road. (Two years and I never ran into you?!) The only thing, sometimes when I talked, you heard, but you didn’t really LISTEN. That was the downfall. And then I became so comfortable with you I let all my guards down. I know those days were tough. And I know the months of talking drove me crazy, I cannot stop thinking about you now. You are the one thing I would like to keep in my life if I move west. We both believe in fate. Didn’t fate bring us together after all those years? I know I could spend my life with you. I know it would be work, all important relationships involve work. Now is not the right time or place, but one day, it will be… and I will be waiting.
Love for always and ever, me
