Thomas,

and today, you’re thinking about her favorite flowers, and where you’re going to take her tonight, because I know you’re romantic that way.

And maybe she doesn’t even like flowers. Maybe you’re gathering a basket of her favorite things and she‘s making your favorite meal and today, you are both living for each other.

And you're excited to see her dress up only for you, and look beautiful for you, and to spend time with her. And all you have on your mind every minute of the day today is her and all the ways you’ll tell her how much you love her and how glad you are to have her.

And you’ll think to yourself how relieved you are it didn’t work out with everyone else because you get to treasure her.

And me? I won’t even cross your mind. Because I’m nothing to you. I was nothing to you. nothing compared to her.
