Oh man, I love this. I can totally relate. I had a similar thing happen to me in January, and a friend of mine had this happen to him this week. It's rare to see a piece of writing that captures those feelings so well, as if you were reading your own thoughts and words, instead of some far-removed author you've never seen before. It's wonderful to see that in writing from time to time. Also, it makes people feel a bit more real--more "normal." I don't think those thoughts have been expressed like that before, without some odd poetic device to obscure it or dancing around the truly personal parts.

If you've ever read it, it reminds me a lot of The Perks of Being a Wallflower. It's very honest, and you did a really nice job. :)

I just wanted you to know that I thought this was very heartfelt, and that there are people out there that understand that pain and agony that comes with loving and missing someone - and not always having the "proper" words to tell them so.

:heart:

I have so many of these.
I just wish I had the courage to reread them, let alone post them for the world to see.
Kudos to you.
Really.
:]

I cried when I read this. I used to feel exactly this way and write things like this until I thought it might actually kill me. What a dark time that I am glad to be over. I hope your heart is okay.

I'm just curious...was this real for you or just a thought you wanted to bring to life?

I can identify with this voice. If I saw 'him' on the street, I wouldn't let him say a word... because I wouldn't be able to stand pleasantries. You captured that feeling very well, and a lot more besides.
