I’m writing letters. They’ll all start with the same few sentences. Yours will not contain a different opening, but what follows will be mine and yours only. Today, I’m making amends and giving forgiveness in a space where no apology has been offered.
You broke my heart.
At a time I needed touch, you were there.
At a time I needed closeness, you were there.
At a time I needed connection, you were there.
At a time I craved you more than the 9 years previous, you were there.
And then you weren’t. You aren’t.
I’m sorry those moments we shared brought light to your reality and a life where you felt sentenced, but I understand keeping close everything that makes your heart burst and fly is the only life you can have.
I forgive you for breaking my belief in kismet, kindred spirits and love.
And I especially forgive you for your last words to me. Because of those words, I want you to know this is a chapter I have to close. While you’ve pushed me away many times before, hope always allowed the door to open again to us. Not this time.
Wishing you nothing but the love and life I know you deserve. I have no regrets. How incredibly privileged I am to have felt your love.
May you always see me in the sunsets that kiss the daylight away.
