A Letter To My Lost Love
Dear Shrimp, I’m sure you’re surprised to hear from me. It's been a long time, I know. I spent ages debating the wisdom of reaching out, but summer… summer was our time. Ceviche by the pool, tacos at the bar, you, me, and a barbecue grill… the memories linger. I honestly cannot sip a cool beer on these hot summer nights and not think of you. I suppose that is why I am writing this. I think of you and I cannot help but wonder, do you think of me? I still love you. I think I always will. I wish I could tell you that it's me and not you. The last thing I want to do is hurt you, but, Shrimp, it is you. You’ve just become… toxic for me.

He would leave the choice to her, as always, but He had been clear about His wishes.
