Of Cell Phones and Trash Cans


The other night I had a dream.

I was in a ballroom, in a prom dress, my best friends surrounding me.We were laughing and talking, having a wonderful time. Then my phone vibrated.That boy, whom I was smitten with for the longest time, had texted me.The text said 3 words.
"I like you."
I looked at it, and threw my phone in the trash.I walked away.
And it felt good. 

It made me realize it is time to move on.
I think I moved on a while ago and didn't notice until now.
Seeing him doesn't give me the cliche butterflies any longer.
His name doesn't cause me to grin ridiculously.
He & I are just friends.
And I finally realized that's all we were meant to be.

For once, I'm alright with that.
