if you need closure.

Often I stay up,
reminiscing on old memories.
Not because I want them back,
but because I miss the emotions I felt in those moments.

Our minds, they work in ways of happiness —
only choosing to remember the good.
Which explains why I can’t forget much of us.

But now I must let you go.
I wish you well, on your own journey,
one that I am no longer part of anymore,
and that’s okay.

I thank God every day,
that out of all his creations,
he allowed me
to experience the beautiful soul
that is you.
And case the day comes
where we will never speak to each other again,
I just want to say,
I am glad that I met you.
I am thankful to have created these memories that will live inside of me forever.

Life is like a blink of an eye,
and before you know it, it’s gone.
So thank you.

Thank you for helping guide me in a way
I’ve never been shown before.
For putting all these broken pieces together, slowly,
one by one,
asking for nothing in return,
only love and time.

And I’m sorry that my love wasn’t enough.
I promised to give you the world
but only gave you a half.
but if there’s one thing I’ve learned from us,
it is to love without condition,
and I promise to carry that with me forever.

I will not ruin you in my mind
and I will not feel resentment.
I will only remember your contribution to my life nothing short of beautiful.
I only wish that you figure yourself out,
and love yourself
as much as you’ve loved me.

I promise to make use of the love you have so willingly poured into me,
because not every person is so willing to give a piece of themselves.
And although i am not satisfied with the way things ended
i will accept it, learn from it, and grow
because now I am finally ready to let go.
this is my closure.
