in reply to your last letter

My timing hasn't been exactly perfect. Everything but.
I don't know what you ever saw in me- which I'm
sure you've already asked yourself a thousand times.
Maybe you've asked yourself what i saw in you.  I
read a letter, the last letter, you wrote me. I found it
today while going thru old papers. I don't know why i
was so dumb. You may have thought you had nothing
to offer and I didn't understand why you put up
with so much crap from me. Now i can honestly
understand why you did put up with me, maybe.  I
Love you like I've never loved anyone. You had
so much to offer.  I knew you straight out of high school -working a low paying job. But
what i loved about you was so simple. You
were so safe to me.  All I needed was to sit
next to you, or have you wrap you're arms
around me, and i was safe and protected from
eveything. You made me feel wonderful. And yes,
sometimes, you even drove me wild.
I never thought you wouldn't be in my life somehow.
When i got married, I didn't want to let go. Now
that I've been so removed for the last few years,
there's a gap in MY universe that i thought
I could fill. No matter what I've done, it only
becomes more aparent that you're what I've
been missing. Each day you were the first and last
thing on my mind and I would quietly cry myself
to sleep each night. I don't know why I couldn't admit
that you were always what i needed. I wouldn't
even admit it to myself. I was so affraid of you
leaving me, that I practically tried to scare you
away.
-
You were always my "buddy".  I've faced the
facts, way too late, that i love you more
than i can control.  There's still so many
things that remind me of times we had or
places we went together. Every little simple
every-day reminders. Even songs on the radio.
  I know it's totally insane to believe
that maybe you still love me, but love isn't
logical. Love doesn't have boundries. Love
isn't something we can pick, control, or
hide away forever. So, I will love
you, forever. At least I can hope to
find someone that makes my heart
happy and peaceful. With any luck, some-
one may come close to making me feel
safe and protected and loved unconditionally.
I'm sorry for what i did,
and for being a twit (for what it's worth).
At least i can acknowledge
now that you're MY center, and
without you, I'm just a stupid girl
that can't move on. Every memory
makes you feel so close and real.
I want to sit down with you and
just forget my life for a few minutes.
You are the Best memorey i have, from
the time i was the happiest. If I could
relive it again, I would want to stay forever.
