My Wish for S

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
and each road leads you where you want to go,
and if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
and if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' 'til you find the window,
if it's cold outside,
show the world the warmth of your smile,
but more than anything, more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
all the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
and you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
and always give more then you take.

But more than anything, Yeah, and more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
this is my wish
i hope you know somebody loves you
may all your dreams stay big

Lyrics from the Rascal Flatts' song My Wish

[For S, even though he may never read this. I'd rather disappear than to cause you pain.]

Darlin' I know you're a poet at heart and your words should be more metaphorical than literal, but I worry when you say things like "I'd rather disappear".

And I hope you know how much of a dork I am when I refer to "Dr. Who" on the BBC: there's a bit recently when the Doctor's companion is telling him why she's leaving--they're friends and travelling companions, you see. She says that she had a friend who was completely in love with this guy and she never looked at anyone else when he was around. He didn't look her way at all. And the companion says "get out." You will never have a full and wonderful life if you keep pining.

So, my beautiful friend, get out. Out of relationship with S. Out of pining and depending no matter how much that pain cheers you. I love you and you deserve so much more than this.
