Thank you

[Image-1]
You’ve moved so far away, and you likely will not see this, but I have to let it out. Thank you for somehow making me feel beautiful and interesting and wanted without ever once hitting on me, or even subtly suggesting anything like that. I could feel deeply how you felt about me and it was never expressed blatantly. You weren’t after me or trying to gain anything. I am sure you must have sensed the same from me. Genuine, pure love and admiration of another without any need for possession or intention. I miss talking to you so much. —It’s Still Cold Here. I Am Glad You Are Someplace Warm.
