Let Me Hold Your Hand

Dear imaginary friend,

I thought I’d let you know that I want something substantial. I miss the feeling it gave me. I miss having the company all the time. I miss holding hands while him and I walked down the street.

I miss asking him questions and getting to know him all over again.

All this going on with us right now is nice, it keeps my heart distracted. But my mind wanders and reminds me from time to time how nice it is to be in a relationship. The commitment, the trust, the affection. It’s all too beautiful to ignore.

I realize I have more important things to focus on but it’s hard to disregard my memories.

Can I pause life for a second and look up my priorities?

Sincerely,

A confused friend
