Left my heart hanging

You are like a missing puzzle piece. My puzzle is incomplete without you but there's nothing I can do.

Yesterday, Sir Obed, our Values Ed. teacher gathered me and my classmates for our last culminating activity in our class this eight grade. He tasked us to bring a paper heart with our name on it and make it a necklace.

During our activity, each group should present the values they learned during our time as an eight grader. My group mates and I presented the value of time since our journey being II Venus is about to end. After each group's presentations, we made use of our paper heart. One group should sit as a circle in front while the remaining groups write their  messages for you in your heart. The paper heart was hung behind our backs so it was easier for others to write on. I felt nervous and happy so it made me cry when I felt scribbles in my back.

After writing, our teacher told us to go into our comfortable place and read the messages posted in our heart. My bones were tingling, eyes were tearing, hands were shaking and I was smiling while reading my heart. I admit it, I expected a message from my special friend. Even if it'll only be one word, I won't care because I just want have a message from that friend. After reading back and forth, I noticed that, that friend of mine didn't write. My heart was crushed. It was left hanging on the air. There was a tiny space left where his message should be but it was empty. I then began feeling empty. My tears of joy were changed to disappointment.

I began asking questions. What if this, What if that, my mind was a mess. I now realized that maybe the distance between us should remain. Maybe this is for the better. And starting that day, I gave up on you.
