Letter to a Past Crush

Love them? Set them free.

If he doesn’t return, he was never yours.

If I’m honest, I miss you.

If I’m honest, it would still be wonderful to kiss you.

If I’m honest, it hurt when you gave up on me.

If I’m honest, I never really gave you my heart’s keys.

If I’m honest, I was always too ashamed and embarrassed of my past to share it with you.

If I’m honest, I think you two should get a room.

If I’m honest, I do think she is a very awesome person.

If I’m honest, my apathy towards you was pretty brazen.

If I’m honest, your eyes never betrayed your love for me.

If I’m honest, it was heart-wrenching to see photos of you and she.

If I’m honest, I cried and cried when I saw you got engaged.

If I’m honest, I have to wonder if our distance was worth the wage.

If I’m honest, I put a price on love and am now reaping what I have sown.
