Since You've Been Gone...
I didn't know where else to turn to, so I found this website. I'm grateful there's a place I can share my thoughts with the world at 1:00am. Been thinking about a lot, and for some reason, I've been thinking about HIM all day.
Dear *EX,*
It's been 4 years since you've held my hand and called me your friend, your lover. A lot has changed during our years apart. You got married to the woman you left me for and started a family - living the white picket fence life, it seems. Here I am living the career-driven/busy/city life...always traveling, always on-the-go. Still single.
It took me a long time to rid the anger and hurt you caused. Even though I know we're better off and weren't meant to be, I still miss you. I miss our friendship. Now that the pain has subsided, I realized that I never stopped missing you since the day you left me for HER. What happened to my best friend?
Both of us have grown up in different ways since our naive relationship. I think you'd realize that I'm more confident in myself...a much stronger person since you left. All those nights of crying myself to sleep...all those holidays spent alone while you spent them with your new family...all those songs that would play at the bars and stop me dead in my tracks...all those Yankees games I went to without you sitting next to me....even though you physically haven't been with me, my heart has dragged you along in this journey called, LIFE. I wish it would just dump you on the side of the road, kinda what you did to me back in 2007.
You reached out to me, asking if we could be "friends" again one day. I used to think it was my pride that made me refuse your oh-so-tempting request...but...it was my self love. There's absolutely nothing you can offer me that I can't offer myself. Oh, and haven't you ever heard of that saying, "You can't have your cake and eat it too?" Well, same goes for this. You made your bed. You chose her.
You closed the door on us, but I was the one who locked it and threw away the key. Remember what you said that night? You told me, "I know I broke your heart, but get over it." Well, guess what....I did get over it. I might still miss you and the memories we shared together, but I know you miss me that much more.
If you could only see all the experiences I've had...the people I've met....the places I've been (I made it to Seattle, by the way...remember that?). Since you've been gone, I've had the time of my life. I've done it all on my own, but I know I'm stronger than you'll ever be.
Since you've been gone...maybe you learned a thing or two on how to be kind to others...maybe you don't drink as much....maybe you learned that jumping from one relationship to the other and getting a girl pregnant 4 months after leaving your ex is not the best way to go. Just sayin....
While you're pretending to live the white picket fence life, I'll be on a plane to the next best destination, counting my lucky stars that I'm not chained to that fence with you.
Sincerely,
