Day 5: A Song That Reminds You Of Someone

Each person we come across in life plays some kind of role. He played the "one who got away" role. He was the guy whom I can talk to about anything - movies, sitcoms, philosophy. Anything. And I always found that as a big turn-on. I think I gravitate towards guys who stimulate me intellectually. He will definitely be one for the books.

I will always remember that one single date. That date where he charmed me to an impromptu late night dinner. That date where I remember every single detail - his shirt, what I ate, what he drank, what we talked about. That date where I completely screwed it up.

So yes. He will forever be my biggest What-If.

I Still Remember

by Bloc Party

I, I still remember

How you looked that afternoon

There was only you

You said, "It's just like a full moon."

Blood beats faster in our veins

We left our trousers by the canal

And our fingers, they almost touched

You should have asked me for it

I would have been brave

You should have asked me for it

How could I say no?

And our love could have soared

Over playgrounds and rooftops

Every park bench screams your name

I kept your tie

I've gone wherever you wanted

And on that teachers' training day

We wrote our names on every train

Laughed at the people off to work

So monochrome and so lukewarm

And I can see our days are becoming nights

I could feel your heartbeat across the grass

We should have run

I would go with you anywhere

I should have kissed you by water

I would let you if you asked me

I still remember
