You were once the center of my own world.
Now, you are a part of the many worlds within it.

I acted as your personal shield, protecting you because you
were most important to me.
Now, I'll watch out for you once in a while, as a good friend should.

My love for you was needy, yet distant out of respect.
Now, emotional distance expands an extra 5 miles.

I offer my loyalty in friendship.. and respect.
No doubt in my mind can hold me from the truth.

And the truth is this:
You are too important to me.
Living a life without seeing your face, hearing your name or even your voice ever again, is like asking me to stop breathing.
It will not be done.

To ask me to forget your existence is out of the question.
My life has gotten a lot better after meeting you.

Best.. decision.. ever.

Thank you for:
Being there.
Being yourself.
Being my friend.
Talking to me.
Being funny.
Being so fantastic.
