For Andrew

by Amy Niggel

You played my knight in shining armor
for so very long
and I swore up and down
that if you ever asked I would drop everything to be with you alone
but I never did tell you that did I?
I never told you how much you remind me of my Cory,
how you never asked any questions of me,
and yet always managed to show up at the right times to save the day.
You were the first guy I was ever 'in love' with,
and a part of my heart will always be yours.
But now you leave,
you walk away in search of a life
a direction.
And all i can think is how much I would have begged you not to go,
but time changes us,
and while I will always love you,
and if you ever needed me
I would drop everything in my life to go to you,
I accept that we are just us,
and nothing more than that.
Maybe if we'd ever figured it out
it would have been good
but I am content with the path we took
and I am going to greatly miss you
my friend.

Author's Note: Dedicated to having been asked for two and a half years what was going on between the two of us, and now it is going to be a whole lot of distance going on between the two of us. I guess you always knew, even if I didn't tell you so, but I do adore you, and if you ever need just say the word and I will be there, after all you always managed to be there for me. Here is to hoping everything works out and I see you again soon!!
