Not everything is supposed to become something beautiful and long-lasting. Sometimes people come into your life to show you what is right and what is wrong, to show you who you can be, to teach you to love yourself, to make you feel better for a little while, or to just be someone to walk with at night and spill your life to. Not everyone is going to stay forever, and we still have to keep on going and thank them for what they’ve given us. -Emery Allen
I remember the first time I saw you at my friend’s wedding. Although there were no words exchanged between us that day, I had this feeling that there’s something really special about you. When we finally met, I was instantly intrigued. I knew there was more to you than what meets the eye. I wanted to get to know you more. I admired your intelligence and how you’ve tried to impress me with all you know. There was a fleeting moment when I found myself liking you. Things seemed to progress quickly. We were there for each other in times we needed support most. You got me excited about the life we were planning to build together. Over time, you became an important part of my every day. Sure, things weren’t always perfect. No relationship is perfect, or nearly close to that. There will be beautiful moments but there will also be hard times. Throughout our journey together I had to admit that it has been an emotional rollercoaster. We argued and fought passionately over so many things. We regularly hurt each other’s feelings. But despite all the struggles we still chose to forgive and stay because we believe that if you do really love something you fight for it, you work hard at it and don’t give up on it. But sometimes, no matter how hard we fight, things just aren’t going to work out and sometimes a relationship just stop being worth fighting for. Our relationship has become toxic. As time goes by, we grew to be more and more against each other.
I know my heart still wants to fight for you but sometimes love just isn't enough to make a relationship work and sometimes, loving someone requires ending the relationship because you want nothing but the best for them. Maybe we’re just not meant to be together forever and I’m learning to be okay with that. All I’ve ever wanted was for you to be happy even if it doesn’t include me. I am thankful for everything you taught me, and for everything we shared. You were a beautiful time in my life that I now must let go of.
