You know how I write letters to you on every birthday, and
we are never together so they always end up being sent online and then lost in
the thread of a million messages. But this time, I really wanted to immortalize
this letter, and it’s only fair that, after having known you for the longest time,
I should dedicate a little something to you.
First of all, many, many happy returns of the day! 21 is
after all, a big turning point and I hope that you are feeling all the best
emotions at this very moment.
Ever since the time we met, you have brought something to
my life – you have always been symbolic in my life, of something akin to
tenderness and romance and gentleness. And today, I want to remind you of the
many things in my life that are present only because you made it happen. So I wrote
this little something for you.
Dearest Horsy,
You
remind me of those times when I accidentally fell in love, and the times when I was
a little too not over those heart aches. Of sitting by the lake side and
playing a guitar, singing to the mellow tune of Hey There Delilah. You remind
me of the time when we could sing Words to each other and dream of that one
love.
I
remember the time you made me listen to Queen of my Heart ; even now I can’t
listen to a single Westlife song without thinking of you. It’s almost like, how
can someone do so much with so little? How can someone know the Shape of my
Heart the way you do? J This is becoming romantic, hehe. But
what can I do? You’re very cute, and if you could see me now, then you’d
probably smile. Because the last time you saw me on your birthday, we were
16. Oh, I suddenly remembered my 16th birthday, when you called me
up half an hour before 12 and then we listened to Fifteen for one last time.
Little did we know that we would meet again in college…because let’s face it, you
belong with me!
Just
so you know, I’m very lucky to have you in my life and since 2005 we have come
such a long way. We have laughed and cried, there were times when we were down
and times when we were on fire…but most of all I think, amidst broken dreams
and empty boulevards, in the end it really did not matter. But what did matter
was that we were together and in our own right, we were royals. After all, it’s
a mad world out there and who’s to stop us from going right out and taking a
look around? ;P
I
want you to know, that in the days to come, even if all your bridges burn down,
it’s alright because this is YOUR life and you don’t need anyone else to be
your Superman. You can fight it yourself because you are brave and you are
splendid. I’m not asking you to be
Happy, but to be content – something I have always told myself. When the world
seems like a beautiful mess, just give your heart a break and if possible, lose
yourself in some music. Because this, along with our memories, is sure to fix
you.
Love,
Your Cat J
Haha, I hope you found all the songs. There are around 25 of them!
