Things to remember.

When you bought Chanel nailpolish for me on the day my boyfriend moved away.
When I would pop by your house on the way home from work with a cold beer.
When we would run to the pool and swim and talk about relationships. I
became your secret keeper.
When you convinced me to take the train to Wanssee and we got caught
in that amazing snow.
When we sit quietly together, doing crosswords and reading books.
When we dance.
When we went for dinner and made big plans to live on farm on the east
coast, and raise our families together.
When walking home late at night, we got to spilling our hearts open,
stuck for twenty minutes on that triangle of sidewalk at Kingsway and
Fraser.
When we take long walks on the North Shore. You, me , and the dogs.
When you met me at the airport.
When you wrote my name in the snow, because I've never been able to.
When we meet for coffees and run down our week. Unafraid to cry in JJ Bean.
When we run into each other right at the right time. When our full
hearts need to be heard.
When we laugh so hard we cry, and laugh some more.
When you send me love texts late at night after you've had a few.
When we always order the spicy cactus roll together.
