I Miss Someone I Shouldn't

Just wanted to say I knew it was your birthday today. August 7th. I didn't forget. Normally I do. Birthdays aren't really a big deal to me, but you surprised me for mine, buying me that travel book and talking about how you would like to go somewhere with me someday... I ate it up. Felt so special and happy that I committed your birthday to memory so I could return the favor.

Little did I know it would be of little use to me now that we're already broken up.

I deleted your number awhile back to eliminate the temptation of messaging you. Didn't realize that would prevent me from being able to say happy birthday, although that's most likely for the best.

Well, just writing to let you know that you were in my thoughts today, whether you should be or not.
