I woke up in my friend’s guest room this morning and saw my reflection in the mirror. Sometimes I can see a beautiful woman looking back at me, which is still weird to process, but on the rare occasion I can see my beauty I think of you and hope this is how you saw me in the early mornings.

I was so happy seeing your gorgeous smile first thing.. I said I’d take as many mornings as you’d be willing to give, and I feel like I missed the biggest opportunity in my life for love and happiness, and not by choice.
