I was at Starbucks, standing in line, about to order the usual. I happened to glance to the right and see a younger woman, probably early twenties, leaning over a table grasping her boyfriend's hand tightly. She had tears in her eyes and she was obviously nervous. After ordering my coffee, not being able to take my eyes off of the two, I walked slowly past them. I could almost feel the emotion radiating from her overflowing heart. The gentleman sitting with her looked confused..It was then that I heard her say it.."Please do not be scared, but I need to tell you something. I have fallen in love with you"... As she struggled to finish that sentence, her voice began to crack as she struggled for breath.
As he sat there for a moment, dazed, and soaking in the true meaning of what she had just said.. he began to weap softly. The embrace that followed is one of storybook magnitude and lasted for what seemed like an eternity. As they were embracing tightly, as if this were the last time they would ever see each other, he whispered into her ear..I have always loved you baby.. and she burried her face in his chest and he looked over to me. I had felt the emotion of the moment almost as strongly as he, so I was obviously teary eyed. He smiled at me, I gave him a reassuring smile..and I finished my coffee with a warm heart and a new hope for this ugly world.

Woke up single. Again.

Yeap, me too
