On the hook
On the hook
I woke up one-morning feeling I had done someone wrong, I had left a friend on the hook for too long
I don't remember how we met back in school, I don't even remember who introduced Sarah to me; the only thing I remember is she liked me a lot but I had no feelings for her none what's so ever.
I did what cowards do back then; I left her on the hook. She called me all the time, but I did not call back, and when i did call back, it would be to because I felt guilty for not calling her back. She told me her story her personal stories, but i never shared mine;
So today after three years i woke up feeling bad, wishing i had the stomach to let her know back then that
i had no feelings for her and that she was a great girl and would find someone who was better.
But i did not do that, rather i had stuck my head in the sand wishing the whole situation would go away.
I had been wishing I would find someone who liked me as I am and when i found one, i felt
i had no feeling for that one.
But here is where the real twist comes; The day i woke up feeling bad for her what the day i realized that
i was also on someone else's hook; Her name (not her real name) is Sarah.
This girl had the same name as the girl three years ago, I called her a lot but she never called me back, i shared
my personal stories but she shared none.
Realizing how wrong I had been, i decided to call the girl I had feelings for and set things straight and tell her
how I felt about her. As the phone rang I calculated the worst-case scenario and the best all in my mind.
The words came out wrong in my mouth, by the time the phone conversation was over, i was banging my head on my
table, literally.
I paced up and down the room hoping i had not destroyed the one thing; her friendship.
I went to bed early that day hoping i would find an excuse to explain what happened during the phone conversation
(maybe i can claim i was drunk or even half asleep when we spoke).
The next morning I was clean, sober, and praying to God to fix what i had broken; and then she called back.

Hey this is part of life, we realize the value after they are gone, so never ignore anyone, we lose real diamond in search of crystals...
