On my way to work I saw someone from behind that looked a lot like you. I knew it wasn't, but I still wanted to call out your name to make sure.
I didn't.
If you came to New York you would tell me---wouldn't you?
I miss you, but I can't help but wonder if it's just the thought of you I miss more.
Either way, a part of me feels empty.

aw, yance.
I do that a lot now that I've moved down here...I keep thinking I see people I knew from Washington, especially in WalMart. You know its not them but for a split second you think "maybe" and you start to realize just how many people you really did like that you left behind.
Yancy,
I loved this post...I'm sure this has happened numerous times with people every day. Heaven knows it happens every time I take a trip or go to an airport in another state.
I'm not arrogant enough to assume that this is me... but please know that I would always call you if I came to the city.
I hope you are doing as well as I imagine. You are a wonderful person and deserve the best.
last week i saw someone that looked like an ex of mine and even though i knew it wasn't him, my heart started pounding and it made me miss him. sometimes i think that its the memories of him that i miss more than the actual person. regardless, i hate it when stuff like that happens. argh.
steph, I'm glad I'm not the only person who feels that way.
