I listened to that song again.  It’s been years I think.  I remember the CD that I received from you, you placed it in my hands and the writing on it made me smile over and over.

I listened to the music, I heard the lyrics, I liked it a lot.  I didn’t ever sit down and take the time to process what it meant.  What you communicated in those lyrics took me 5 years to figure out on my own.  Incredible, huh?  Talk about something being right under your nose.

It hurts to think that I’ve missed so much being in one mindset when this other is so much better.  I miss you even though we were never that close.  I value the fact that you value me and while it may be in passing I still love it.  There is so much in our lives that later in our lives we realize if we would have looked at the time it would have been so obvious.

Now I’m sitting here, alone.
