What might have been

Posted on | October 11, 2009 | 1 Comment

Hay… he is coming back again. It made me realize how old I am already! Yay! Been more than a decade now. He’s the one that got away. The one that’s supposed to be the one. But I had other priorities and I let him go.

There was no one after him. Not the same way as that time with him.

We talked a lot. I would like to believe that he shared more of his life with me than anybody else. He used to come to our home just to be with me. He’d sit at the porch and would ask me to sit with him. It was funny cause my dad used to give us dagger looks. But I kept telling my parents that we’re just friends and nothing more. We were still young then. Barely out of high school.

He went and lived with his mom in another country. We didn’t have the chance to say goodbye. A common friend told me years later that he wrote letters to me except that he lost it. He was really sad and kept asking our common friend to tell me that he’d like to talk to me. Unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to happen.

I’ve no regrets. We were not meant. Though I still feel sad like now that I know he’s coming back for a brief visit. There’s a tiny what might have been lurking in the depths of my mind.

But that’s that. He’s part of the past and will forever be that way for me…
