 There’s this person I met. 

A long time ago. 

And I fell in love. 

But then I lost them by my own stupidity. 

I hoped I did the right thing. 

I watched and waited and hoped they’d be happy. 

They saved my life more than once without trying. 

One day I had a feeling they needed me. 

Low and behold, they were having some pretty big issues and needed help so I stepped up. 

I learned a lot that day. 

I waited a little bit longer. 

I took a chance. 

I told them how I felt. 

How I never stopped loving them and how sorry I was for walking away and how I wanted them back. 

They were shocked for a moment. 

And then they revealed that they too felt similar. 

My heart was so warm I couldn’t think. 

I thought I was dreaming. 

It had been more than 15 years. How was this happening?

Now we are here. Where I’m sitting here watching them sleep because I hold every single moment dear to my heart. 

Because there’s this person I met. 

A long time ago. 

And I fell in love.
