Dear Old Love

May We Reunite at Thirty

Now that the Yankees have won another World Series, I wonder if you’ve changed your password to reflect the 27 championships.

Necessary Silence

This silence, while necessary, is heartbreaking.

A Kiss Is Just a Miss

I don’t know if you kissed me because you were finally able to after all that time, or because you were just missing her.

Our Joke

I hope we will look back and just laugh about it. “Remember the time we broke up and didn’t talk for three years? How funny!”

Just Said No

I always knew, deep down, that we weren’t going to get married. I wish you had said no that sunny day in March, even though it was one of the happiest days of my life.

Fifth's a Charm

I tried to get over you once. I tried again. And again. And again.

Over the Coals

But at least you taught me how to be barefoot whenever I wanted. That’s something, right?

You Do?

I miss waking up every morning to the scent of your sweat and Old Spice.

By the Scores

You once screwed me in the music library, up against shelves full of epic opera scores. Now every day when I go to work there, I glance at the spot where my forehead pushed the books out of place. They’re still messed up. (So am I).

Blame Gamed

I’m glad you met someone; now I can stop blaming myself for your loneliness.

Can't You Be Both?

I would stop being a trashy whore and just be your girl if you asked.

Stuck

Without you, I don’t know how to be the person who deserves to be with you.

Why Not a Dancing Pigeon?

You both wrote songs about me. In yours I was a pigeon. In his I am a dancer.

Necking

Okay how about this: Can I just come over and kiss your neck for ten minutes? Just your neck. Just ten minutes.

Another Case of the "Yet You's"

You said I was all you ever wanted, yet you still left and kept looking.
