Long Lost Love Letter
Dear lover,
Sometimes leaving is the strong thing. All the time I’ve known you, you've called me a coward. Maybe I am, or maybe I have had to be the strongest when I watch you with him. Watch him kiss you, touch you, make you laugh. That was the hardest thing I have ever done. Over time, my soul broke little by little watching you watch him. Watching you love him and hold him, when all I’ve ever wanted is for you to hold me. For you to tell me that it was going to be okay, that someday you and I will make it, that going through all the bad things we've been through would all be worth it, because I had you. And you would someday have me. But you knew that, that you've always had me. You have always had me, my dearest. But I am tired and weak now. Our day has not come fast enough for my tender heart and I must move on. I am leaving, not because of you, but for you. I am going because it is my turn to prove my strength to you. I am saying goodbye because it is a strong thing to do. I am letting you go. I hope that we find each other someday soon, because Lord knows I have been waiting, and I will keep waiting for you. For us.
I will love again, I will hold someone else in my arms, I will kiss someone else that is not you. But even though she might be in my arms, you will always be in my heart. It is and always will be you.
Truly,
Yours
