Scott was right after all....

Scott said that closure and healing wouldn't truly happen until you moved on too. It hit me like a ton of bricks to see that you had another girl. That's why the phone calls and texts stopped. It wasn't because you were busy with work, it was because you'd met someone. I'm happy for you, really I am. It sucks that we can't be happy together. I can talk about you now and smile instead of cry. I can remember you most of the time without tearing up. Summertime is always the hardest. Summertime was OUR time.

Things I want to forget:
* the feeling I had when I began to realize it might be over

* you confirming that feeling

* spending a month crying on the bathroom floor

* the piece of me that's missing without you

* that I still love you

Things I want to always remember:
* laying beside you in a tangle of sheets and each other catching our breaths and you saying "No matter what happens between us, remember this moment"

* the way you held on to me when it was time to go on a job and not knowing when you'd see me again.

* the way you'd jump out of the truck and run to me after you'd been gone, pick me up, and say "kiss my face"

*that night you put your hand on the back of my head, and as you were pulling me down to you, you saying "come down here and make love to me"

* the way I felt just being in your presence, be it on the phone or live in person. I never felt alone, I always felt loved and important.

*sitting on the sofa with my legs propped up on your lap listening to you play the guitar
