I remember meeting him for the first time.
Oh how his baby blue eyes had shined.
At first sight, we had an instant attraction, on both sides.
Our deep dark secrets we had confided.
We dated for a good two years,
But we wanted different things in life, I feared.
When we broke up it was a mutual thing.
He wanted to marry and have another child to raise, on the finger he offered a ring.
We broke up and lost touch for awhile.
He eventually married and had another child.
Things did not work out with him and his wife, after 13 years together.
He really thought that she was his forever.
We eventually found one another again.
He became my true friend.
Him and his wife separated and moved away from one another.
Their daughter they shared, joint custody is what they agreed together.
Today, he is my friend and 16 years has gone by and we are still friends.
My love for him will linger on, and our bond will never end.
