It Seems Just Like Yesterday

Life has to end. Love doesn't.

It Seems Just Like Yesterday

Lost love is still love. It just takes a different form, that's all. You can't hold their hand or tousle their hair, but when those senses weaken another one comes to life.

Words can't explain how much I miss you. How much I wish you were here. It was just yesterday that I saw you and you were saying goodbye. And I walked right out that door, not knowing that I would never see you again in this life. Everyday I see you in the pictures and I wonder how different life would be if you were here.

Memory. Memory becomes your partner.

I took a walk down memory lane today. And I saw you in the stars watching me. I cried today because the pain of missing you never goes away. I looked at all the keepsakes you gave me and held them tight. Because it was just yesterday that I remember opening up that present from you.

You hold it. You dance with it.

There's not a day goes by that I don't wish we could meet face to face again. That I could talk to you and tell you all that has happened in my life. I wish that life was simpler and that you were hear to help guide me through it. I wish you could tell me what to expect and help me fix all my problems like you once did. It was just yesterday that you held me in your arms after I came home crying because of a bad day.

Life has to end. Love doesn't.

I know that because you are gone, I am stronger. I know that if I could get through the loss of you, someone I loved more than anything, then I can get though any obstacle. Life ends and we begin to learn how to move on with the pain. No one can even begin to understand the feelings that someone has after a loved one has passed. But, there is hope. Hope that you are watching over me and protecting me. Hope that the memories will never fade away. Hope that I will once again see your smile. After all, it was just yesterday that you waved goodbye.

Romans 8:28- And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him. Who have been called according to his purpose.

I might never know why you were taken from me that day. Why you had to leave before I was done needing you. But, God picked his very best flower from the garden so that you could be with Him and it would be selfish of me to want to take you away from that. It was just yesterday that I wished you were here.

Just know that you will forever be missed, until we meet again. Because it seems just like yesterday that I saw your face.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
