DICKSON

To The Guy Who Never Told Me We Were Over, I remember driving to meet you for the very first time and I distinctly recall having the powerful feeling that you were going to dramatically affect my life. I knew it then as surely as I know it now. Looking back, I know I was just another girl to you, and you meant so much more to me. But I learned about myself – and what I think about love and life – from casually dating you. Thank you, firstly, for that. By the time I met you that you had already completely charmed me through your flirty texts and quick wit. Our banter flew back and forth like wildfire. But even then, I knew you weren’t like the other nice guys I had dated before. I will be the first to admit there were a million signs that I didn’t mean much to you – and never would – even from the very beginning. Those little things should have stopped me from falling for you. But of course, they didn’t. I would have been the first to say you just weren’t that into me, but in class...

Second love teaches you how to love again after you’ve been broken.  It teaches you that love still exists, that you’re capable of loving again and loving harder. That you can still have faith in love no matter how much pain your first love caused you.  Second love is there to pick up the pieces. Second love gives you hope.  That your fairy tale is still out there. That heartbreak is not the end of the world and that there are better things ahead. It shows you what happens when you move on, when you let go, when you try again and when you never lose hope.  Second love shows you the light after the dark. Second love is braver.  It means you know how to forgive, you know how to risk getting hurt again because it’s worth it. It means that you’re prepared for the worst but you’re hoping for the best.  Second love makes you stronger. Second love makes you believe in timing.  Why things didn’t work out the first ti...

I sat here for nearly 20 minutes staring at my phone screen deciding if I should hit send or not on a message, a stupid message that said, “hey” because I was scared that would be too much. But I hit send and you responded. You responded a total of three times and that was all. Now I remember why I felt the hesitation I did to hit send in the first place. I can’t stop thinking about you and I don’t even interest you enough to respond to my texts, but don’t worry. I heard your message loud and clear. It’s time to stop hanging on to someone who has no intentions of staying, who has no interest in being in my life or even being there for me in the slightest way. So,  I’m done.  You win. I’m done telling myself you must care about me when you clearly don’t. I’m no longer trying to convince myself that maybe the spark is still there, that maybe it just needs to be rekindled a little. I’m over allowin...

Even though it’s over, I can still feel you here. When I close my eyes at night I can still feel your hands interlaced with mine and I swear I can feel your arms around me. I can still smell you in the air and I can still feel your heart beating. Even though it’s over, I still miss you. I go through our text messages and laugh at our jokes. I still remember everything that we said and did. I remember your birthday that we spent in front of the pond talking about the world. And I remember arguing about which flavor of pizza to get. Even though it’s over, I still think about you. I think about everything we were and everything we could have been. Then I think about what we are and it still breaks my heart every time. Even though it’s over, I still wish you’d change your mind. I still wish you’d come back to me. Sometimes I stare at my phone, because I hope you’ll reach out to me one day. Even though it’s over, I still...

I didn’t think that I would miss you but I do. Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I look at is my cellphone. Your name is always there. A text message response to a conversation we had the night before. Every. Single. Morning. For nine months. This has been our routine. But the last message I got from you was at midnight a week ago. You said we should part ways. No detailed explanation why. You said your good bye and that was that. No response to my questions. No acknowledgement of anything. You just left. No reason. No explanation. You’re just gone. I spent several days playing our conversation over and over. What did I say that was wrong? What did I do? Why did this happen? It’s a never-ending string of questions that I know will never have a response to. We’re not even dating. We’re not in any kind of relationship. We, honestly, do not even know what we are. We never defined it. We’re just… us. Randomly meeting in ...

Just when I accepted that things were going to be bleak, you came. You were that one person I didn’t expect to majorly turn things around for me. To be honest, I thought our first date would be our last because you were a bit quiet; which made me think you weren’t enjoying my company. Little did I know, that it was just the beginning of the happy moments that are now just memories etched in my mind. We were total opposites but our personalities jived greatly. While you were mostly reserved, you never failed to make me feel that I was wanted. Your texts were consistent, you made sure we saw each other regularly, you constantly held my hand, and always kissed me when I arrived and before I left. I appreciated that even though we never talked about what we really were, you always made me feel special. I always marveled at the effort you put into us, and I am very grateful for all of it. At some point I started feeling genuinely happy again. Having you in my life made me hopef...

I don’t know if getting over you is an option anymore. I’ve tried.  Shit have I tried.  But it just hasn’t happened. And Facebook likes to remind me of how happy we used to be. At first, those memories used to be just a piece of nostalgia. Just something I could look at from time to time when they popped up and smile because you and I were so happy. But now, as I sit here, older but not even close to wiser, they are constant torture. They are the reminders of how happy I was then and how unhappy I am now. Because even though we had so many problems, big ones, the moments of solace in between were worth it. Were worth  everything.  And if I had to do it all over again, I would.  In a heartbeat. This nightmare makes me wish that I was dreaming. That I’m going to wake up and none of the past few years have happened and I still have you. I still have everything that I had ever wanted and didn’t take it for granted. Because I did take...

You were my first love and essentially my everything. I would have gone to the ends of the earth for you. I was putty in your hands because I was so vulnerably in love with you. Loving you made me crazy. Not in a bad way; in a beautiful, earth-shattering way. It made me experience feelings that I didn’t even know were possible. I never knew I could feel so deeply for another person until you came into my life. And then you broke my heart. You crushed it and left me with scars that will never fully go away. In the beginning, I didn’t think I would be able to make it through the heartbreak. It was the worst pain I’d ever felt. It was like you had driven me out into a desert, told me I was worthless and then drove away, leaving me there to starve and die on my own. I was absolutely terrified. Everything that I knew about my future and myself was shattered. I barely knew who I was anymore. I couldn’t even properly function, reducing myself to a hysterical mess on my...

First of all, let it be known here and now that I did love you. I was only ever cold to you that one time because I cared too much. I could never think normally when I was around you. Some say that infatuation is different from love but what I felt for you bordered in between. I loved you despite i didn't told you but I also crushed on you like you were the best thing since coffee. I used to believe that love was breath-taking, consuming and potent – it was all these things and more. Love has the ability to break you down like a mere puzzle piece. You thought you were a complete picture. That you have everything figured out. Here I come, world, be ready because I am here to face you. But one person can come into your life and make you rethink everything. And I mean everything. All of your photo is all over my phone. They will make you ask questions that you never dreamed of before. They will make you want to be better – be someone they would never dream of leaving. They wi...

She was everything I ever wanted in a woman. If I were to conceptualise a list of ten desired qualities in a woman, she would score eleven out of ten. She was my other half, this uncomprehendingly wonderful being that fulfilled my life, so much so that I sometimes doubted his existence and thought that I had contrived her in a dream. She inspired me, challenged me and loved me just as I was: quirks, flaws and all. She touched my soul so deeply that I was completely vulnerable to her grasp, which was always tender and caring. She taught me what it felt like to truly love someone down to your core; what it felt like to constantly live with a burning desire, so strong that it actually pains you, and he showed me the perpetually engulfing warmth of deep, flaming, impassioned, mad love. He dreamed up delightful visions of our future together – bright enough for both our imaginations. I loved every element of her soul.  I saw as more reasons to love her: I loved her heartwarming s...

An Open Letter To My Mother: Thank You For Being My Hero        To my Mom, Thank you. Thank you for being there for me. You have been my biggest fan through every single stage of my life and I couldn’t ask for a better cheerleader. Thank you for knowing when I was wrong and spanking me when I was being a brat. I may not have liked it then, but looking back, I know I’m better off. Thank you for holding me while I cried and promising me that tomorrow would be a better day. You’ve been my rock through breakups, life decisions, and new chapters. You’ve carried me through when I was convinced I couldn’t go on. I am eternally grateful. Most importantly, thank you for showing me right from wrong, for encouraging me in my walk of faith, and for teaching me the value of respect not only for others, but for myself as well . I love you, Mom. You’re my role model and even though I laughed at everyone who told me th...

Hey you, You beautiful girl. This one is for you. And the funny thing is, you will probably not even know that I wrote this for and about you. I am crushing hard on you.  From the moment I have met you I felt something I did not feel in a long time. You are special, so special and I do not even think you realize how special you are. When I saw you I felt this instant attraction and for me this was weird because you are not my standard ‘type’. You are So beautiful that I could not keep my eyes off of you. Sometimes I noticed that I was just staring at you. Watching you move and watching you be in a moment and it made me smile. Busy reading your  whatsapp status. You really march to the beat of your own drum, and that is what I like about you and what  I admire about you.  .....missing part check again later... Your Crush DICKSON ORENGO.

Luckily, I was blessed with four loving aunts. So i thank you all for all of the things done for me over the years and all of the things that are yet to come, and I appreciate all that you do. I love you all. See you soon. With All My Love, Your Niece DICKSON ORENGO.

Dear bestie, I want to take the time to tell you how very important you are in my life. It's hard sometimes to say these things in person, even to a best friend, so I'm writing you this letter to say it for me. My friend, you are the most significant person in my life right now. You are my dearest friend, the one person I can be open and honest with, the person who knows me better than I know myself. When I'm with you, I can be myself, with no pretense, and I'm accepted and loved completely for who I am. There are no surprises with you; I know who you are, and you know who I am, and we are able to love one another completely. We aren't always able to spend as much time together as we'd like to, but when we are together, it's as if we had never been apart. Being with you makes me laugh, and it gives me a safe place to cry. You are sensitive and bright and altogether beautiful. I love you for being the wonderful person that you are and for the beauty you br...

Today I am so in love with the Man God made just for me!! Last year I thought I was in love with you. I was going through a really hard time, dude#1 dumped me,  We started off as friends. Then we became really good friends . For two years we were drawn to one another. i would talk to you until you fell asleep. You said my voice was soothing. Then dude#1 messed up and you saw an opening. I really didn’t want a relationship and neither did you. You took care of me and gave me comfort. You tried to convince me that you where not in some kind of twisted relationship .  Then you dumped me cause ?? I don’t know and today I really don’t care. I really liked you. I would have always had your back and supported you and most of all loved you. Oh well. Only now can I say ……… THANK YOU FOR DUMPING ME If I tried to hold on to you I would have missed my King!! THANK YOU AGAIN !!
