To Whom It May Concern.

2/22/10

I miss the sound of the rain.
I miss the way you would come up behind me and rub my shoulders.
I miss your beautiful brown eyes.

Walking barefoot everywhere.
Laughing about nothing at all.
Holding your hand.
Making paper cranes at 3 in the morning.

Jumping off the dock into the lake in the summer heat.
Making silly faces at you from the other room.

I miss that first hug.
I miss the uncertainty.

~~~

I enjoy visiting you often.
I enjoy helping you as much as possible.
I enjoy slowly but surely making positive decisions.

The beauty of snow.
Knowing that a good cry makes things feel less scary.
The winter sky.
Striped scarves and video cameras.

I enjoy alone time.
I enjoy making you smile.

~~~

I can't wait to move away.
I can't wait to start a new chapter of my ever-changing life.
I can't wait to ask difficult questions, and get helpful answers.

Grow up.
Find a new passion.
Learn about myself as a human being.
Travel somewhere new and scary. With you.

I can't wait to be free.
I can't wait to live.
