I was only 8, but I loved you, I truly did. I loved everything about you, from your charming smile to your stupid jokes. And I love that you haven't changed. Your smile still makes me smile. Your stupid jokes still make me laugh. I'll never admit it to you, but after 6 years, I think I still love you; and I still wonder if you ever did, or ever will love me back. I don't see you anymore, but we still talk. You'll never see this, but I want you to know I care about you. And no matter what, I'll love you Ryder. xoxo maddie

okay so my friend has liked you since we were 9 and she's a psycho about that, and my best friend has a crush on you and won't admit it. And yours is a friendship I wouldn't trade for the entire world so I don't want to potentially ruin it. And we are so young and have so much time that I feel like it would be so much better if we waited. I can't tell if all of these are just excuses that I'm making to support commitment issues, or if they're valid reasons as to why I should continue to play this agonizing waiting game. Other people we're both interested in, immaturity, circumstances, and all the other good reasons to not. But somehow those million cons don't overshadow the few pros. Why? What do I do? How do I go on? so many questions and I don't know if you are the answer, but I want to find out. I want to find out because I think i really like the way you make me feel. i don't know, I'm just so confused.

for the past four years you have been woven in & out of my life. freshman year to freshman year. season into season; here for one, gone for the next.
they say it takes seven years to grow all new skin cells. every time we end, i think how long it will have been since you last touched me. how much longer it’ll be until i’m a version of me without you tucked into tiny corners of my being. 14 months at the longest; though another boy held me, i often thought of you. two days at the shortest.
it’s only been a little over a month, but tonight in the shower as i lathered up, my mind drifted to thoughts of you.
in june, a girl i met on tinder read my tarot cards. i asked about college. for the good, she told me someone would enter my life. someone vain. someone dishonest. she told me this person would teach myself a very positive lesson about who i am & who i wanted to be. i thought, at the time, it was absurd. how could that ever be good?
as i scrubbed my body, my skin began to shed.
this afternoon as i drove home in the pouring rain, i passed under a bridge. for a moment, everything stopped. i was protected from the rain. i recall you being my bridge. my safety net from the thunderous world outside.
i scrubbed harder, dead skin flaking off, my skin raw & red.
two weeks ago, sobbing so hard, i started to hyperventilate. every part of me ached for you. my fingers gravitating to my phone, fingers dancing around the numbers in a pattern that belonged to you. i cried out your name in pain, in agony. i thought, only if you could hold me, all this pain would go away.
but i was a month in. 83 months to go.
my skin swirls down the drain.
two months ago we were sat on my bedroom floor, eating cheerios out of mugs, sharing smiles & kisses, while you whispered i’m the one.
i wrapped my towel tight around my body, drying off the stains you left.
they say it takes seven years to grow completely new skin, but tonight i shed every surface you had ever touched.

It’s you. It always has been and always will be. I can’t look at anyone else without thoughts of what we could have been. You know I care and you’ll always have my heart, but it’s time for me to let go. I love you, and as much as I feel like I need you, it’ll only hurt me if we stay friends. I’ll forever be here for you, just from a distance. I hope you’re doing good. Last I heard, my friends said you seemed happier. No one else can give me quite the same feeling that you did, but I guess some people are just lessons in our lives, huh?
