Dear Diane 2

I wish I had something important to tell you
than hoping to see your face once more
again

I do recall the moment theft that left us by
just to go through most of the day without
shredding in missing you
Should note down for the both of us we had
the best of the untested dress code of our
love

The time we spent, each moment we could
share made sense to my entire existence

Honey remember the day you rubbed my
chin just to grasp my thinking

Or between that day we couldn’t express
words as a writer does we ended up having
our own love language that had the

most inside jokes just to communicate in
understanding in meanings that could easily
visualised in animated by that we both
banged in watching it
At some point it kept us glue as if it were a
glue trap of our relationship
A feeding scheme in our conversational
content of our crazy laughter
I remember the first time I saw you
The nerves of shaking of interest to talk to
you
The moment I said “Hey “ and you said
“Hey”
It felt like it was our thing for sure ain’t no
other person could understand that

To break the freeze I complimented your
music taste as crazy it sounds it was the
exact taste that my intestine danced for it
daily
The very first hug that left me with all my
questions answered by smearing the most

paralysing smile you gave me

I’m not sure if I ever express my emotions
deeply how your being order an existence
soldiers within my heart creating a town of
Rising Diane’s movement
The feelings of your attentive specifics how
you invented a better version of me
How you stressed dearly for communication
effectively just to make the distance
between us bearably
We weren’t even near to each other
That was the actual fear that you erased
everyday
We became each other’s daily routine
We became each other’s mission in seeing
each other from time to time

It never crossed my nightmare that we will
just be erased like a drawing in a fabricated
story that is unfinished worthy to be started
all over again just like that
