FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH I LOVED YOU AND OFTEN FEEL THE EMPTY SPACE

THAT YOU ONCE FILLED.

I REMEMBER… HELL I SOMETIMES THINK WE COULD… NO.

WELL…I DON’T REALLY KNOW WHO YOU ARE ANYMORE.

DO I… DOES IT EVER CROSS YOUR MIND?

MAYBE WE SHOULD MEET UP. BUT I’D NEVER HAVE THE GUTS TO CALL.

YOU’D HAVE TO BE THE ONE THAT CALLED.

OH… I WAS NEVER ANY GOOD AT ALL THIS.

BUT ANYWAY, UM, IF YOU SEE THIS

JUST…

WELL…

LET ME KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.

Jay Leffew said "Quirky stuff, and surprisingly believable; it spoke of abandoned love very clearly, and I'm sure the 'target' would have recognised the writer. Good one, thanks."
