Dear (those who watch me),
I have met someone. They make me feel good
about myself. I have never seen them, and they have never seen
me. I have never heard them, and I remain unheard to them.
But, none the less, we talk everyday. I miss them when we
don't. My friends often make fun of those who meet online, and
have a "relationship", but I know this is different.
We have opened to each other in ways that I have not
done with friends that I've had for years. We are honest with
each other on all levels, and accept one another. We accept the
differences we have, and cherish the similarities we hold. We've
made odd, and beautiful, connections a few times, now.
We are going to talk on the phone, tomorrow night,
for the first time. This leaves me enthralled and anxious, all at
once. I am worried that I will let her down, or I will be less
interesting "in person", however interesting she finds me, now.
The best thing I can do is not change my attitude, and stay the person
that I am; Stay the person she knows me as. It's just
easier to choose words if you can stop mid-sentence and think.
I've changed. I really have. And, it's
for the better. I don't care what people say; They just
don't understand the bliss I feel. I was telling my friend, just
the other day, that finding the girl of my dreams would be
impossible. I have found a girl that fills in blanks that I have
left. If there are bumps in the road, I don't care; We can
learn off of each other.
I hope I get to see her, someday. But, I already know she's a beautiful person.
