"With you my heart will always stay.
With you my thoughts will be every day.
You remain to be the one that I regret letting get away.
Why didn't I say what I needed to say?
You are the one I will always use my wishes on.
You are the one I will always wish was never gone.
I'll constantly wonder what went wrong.
I'll forever think of what I could've did that was never done."

Many of us have someone special that slipped away from us. Although the person went away, the love continued to linger. I'll let you in on a little secret, there is someone like that in my life. Okay, it's not really a secret. Everyone in my life seems to know about it and, luckily, few dare to speak of him anymore.
Over the years, friends would run into him and tell me of his good news and that made me very happy. To this very day, when I hear sad news regarding this person, I cry. I feel disappointed because the wishes that I made for him when I was a naive teenager didn't come true and my prayers that he have the very best in life haven't been answered yet.
If they were, he'd have found his true love early,
be happily married, and not know the sting of loss.
He'd have an expensive car.
He'd have a mansion.
He'd be stupendously wealthy.
He'd utilize his wonderful talents and be famous in his chosen occupation.
He'd find that the things that he needs come to him effortlessly.
He'd always be smiling and be far too happy to have any thoughts of me!
Isn't that what we all secretly wish for? Don't we all just want to share a long, productive, prosperous, and happy life with the one that was made just for us?
It's not really such a tall order. Is it?
I'm a good person.
I pray rigorously.
My prayers of two decades haven't been answered.
How could that possibly be?
Perhaps the Creator has something even more spectacular in store for him.
My heart certainly hopes so. It's about time!
Until then, may the love that I have for him surround him with peace and joy...even if he has no clue as to its origin.
