When we met something had drawn me towards you….

I wasn’t love

It wasn’t lust

It wasn’t attraction

It was familiarity.

You became the person I relied on for most things. The person that was always there for me. Even if I didn’t even know I needed someone.

You were my shoulder to cry on, my person to laugh with, and I don’t recall a time where you ever failed to make me smile

I forgot one thing that was necessary in a friendship like ours….

Reciprocation

Somehow it slipped my mind, I don’t know how it it did but it did. That I didn’t give you my shoulder to cry on and I was only there when I need someone to pull me back up from my knees.

I never knew you were going through as hard of a time as I was and I didn’t ask.

I guess it’s true what they say

You never know what you have until it’s gone

And I am a prime example of it.
