The one that got away...

There are so many things that I miss. Not having my EH to greet me when I get home after a long day of work. The dinners he would make. Sleeping in on a rare day off for the two of us. Watching our favorite tv shows late into the night.

I miss the sweet little kisses to my forehead, the incredible bear hugs, and the way he would smile at me as though I was the only one in the world who mattered to him.

I miss hearing him laugh at my horrible jokes, the way he would dance around the apartment, and hearing him sing his Frank Sinatra songs. He has an amazing voice.

I miss his I love yous, I miss yous, and I can't wait to see yous.

Sometimes I close my eyes and all I see is my life with him. I imagine a world in which we are happily in love and our story remains the greatest love story of all time.

Although she may have gotten it wrong in her Part of Me song, Katy Perry's The One That Got Away definitely brings me to tears as I realize in another life I would be his girl, and we'd keep all our promises, be us against the world. In another life I would make him stay, so I don't have to say he was the one that got away. But I do. He will always be the one that got away.

And I miss him; I always will.
