1 A piece of my heart has left

There is something about falling in love with a beautiful mind that makes me crave their skin. as if gripping onto the back of his shoulders whilst my body is pressed beneath his is all I have left to save me from drown weing.words can't describe the way I feel when I met you but actions can describe the way I hurt when you left me.

Have you ever met a person who at first glance you're not attracted to but then you talk with every word every smile every laugh they become more beautiful until you can't believe there was a moment you didn't think they were.

One Tuesday evening as I was walking down memory lane I thought I was but actually I was walking out on love that day I found out that my closest pass love from my childhood has passed away. I was heartbroken I was devastated I couldn't understand at that moment how could someone rip a piece from my heart that would never be whole again.

I remember like it was yesterday the first time we met. I was 11 years old attending high tide with middle school, it was a rainy day and I didn't have a umbrella , I stay down the street from my school so I walked home everyday,

As I was walking down the sidewalk with my head down I looked up and realized it was a boy holding a umbrella over the both of our heads. I couldn't resist watching you walk in the rain, my name is Monte by the way.

I was so speechless and shy my words were scattered but forced to come out, I stay for streets away from Whitlock street, my name is Azariyah by the way thank you.

What are you thanking me for it I'm just doing my job as a gentleman . Responded Monte.

Gentlemen? I asked. you are still a young boy who is attending school still living with your parents LOL as I laughed.

I don't stay with my parents unlike the rest I stay with my grandparents, my parents are deceased they serve in the army, sorry for your loss I didn't know. I said feeling guilty inside. it's okay this is only the beginning for us to get to know each other, Monte responded back with a smile upon his face.

As I was looking down feeling guilty about his parents I realized that Monte shoe place was untied. Monte stop your shoelace is untied!

I will be okay I just want to make sure that you make it home safe and dry before it start raining hard.

Next thing you know I was on my street which is Whitlock. I could make it from here. I told monte.

I want to make sure that you make it to your doorstep dry responded Monte. Soon we made it to my mi casa, I really appreciate you walking me all the way home on this rainy day, even though it was raining it felt like a sunny day to me because I was full of joy. I actually felt butterflies in my stomach for the first time.

As years passed by me and Monte continued being friends, all those school years have went past and very fast next thing you know we were in our senior of high school. A lot has changed but not our feelings for each other, our friendship became stronger and he also stay ed two streets away from me with his grandparents who are still living.

We both attended Monroe high School but the only difference was we hanged around different crowds of people during our high school years, a part I did like because we were still friends but another part I didn't because I did not like the people that Monte chose to hang around with and the man that he was becoming to be.

I always was told you are what you hang around, but in my eyes I seen different when it came down to Monte they only know what it's going on present-wise in school. I was the only person that knew him deeply within, which brought out a whole different person in him.

Although Monte had his own car since our 10th grade year, which made it easy for me to have a ride home still even though we were much older but I was the only one who knew about his personal life concerning his grandparents.
