The message on your answering machine that I should've left...

by heartbeats echocho

Hey. It’s me. I know we don’t talk much but, that’s my fault. Uh…here’s the thing. I notice that when you leave a room, you always seem unsure, almost afraid to go. I was wondering Why? cause it just….seems so odd. Sigh.
Wow. I think that came out wrong…. What I’m trying to say is.
Don’t pay attention to those stupid kids at school. Cause if people spend all their time harassing you & throwing daggers at you with their words, you’re way more important then they want you to be. Which is their problem!
I just wanted to let you know that even though you might feel invisible, I see you. That even though I don’t know you as well as I could, I won’t ever forget you, because, you were the ‘oppurtunity of a life time’ for me. I had the chance to make a difference, and I didn’t take it. Many times all I had to do was…talk to you…& I didn’t. For this I’m sorry. But thanks to you, I won’t ever make that mistake again.
Bottom line: We both have secrets. Sigh.
Sorry that I’m just like them…see ya
