Day 77 of 266

 I'm sorry, love.

I know I've been really messed up, and it's hard for me to go back to the way things should have been. That's why, with all sincerity, I'm really sorry. Before completely forgetting you, there are three things I wanna tell you.

First, I'm sorry, and thank you. 

I'm sorry if I broke you over and over again, it won't happen anymore because we're parting ways and with that, thank you, thank you for making me realize that sometimes, letting go of the people we thought what's best for us is better than staying and losing the reason to love again. I'm not talking about you; I'm talking about myself. You once told me that I was the best girl and our relationship was the best thing that ever happened to you, but right now, all these thoughts vanished because here we are, looking in the opposite direction, taking a different path.

Second, you aren't my best mistake; you're my unforgettable almost.

As we are now parting ways, I hope you won't treat me or our memories as your best mistake. Because to me, I don't think you are one. Yes, things might not have worked between us in the way we wanted it to be, but admit it, at some point, we thought that this person I'm texting/calling right now feels like "the one." I actually thought you were the one, but fate is such a happy-go-lucky freak. Just when things were okay, something came up, and now we decide to fight it... on our own. 

Third, don't ever look back, please.

While we're walking away from each other, don't ever look back, and don't even dare to stop. Why? Because I might do that, and if you do it too, you're eyes will be hypnotizing me, and it will be hard for me to completely let you go. So please, while we're both walking away, don't dare look at me. We have come this far to let each other go; don't make it any harder for me.

This won't be the last time we'll meet. I'm sure of that. Maybe when we're older and our voices change and so as our hair, we'll meet in a park. Maybe if we're both single at that time, we could catch things up. If we're not, let's just smile at each other.

"Oh, that person used to be my everything."

Day 3 of 366

I wanted to say hello, but never actually sent the message. It wasn't because I wasn’t willing to make contact; rather, I thought that popping up out of the blue would be a kind of trespass. I was scared to death that if I started suddenly, you would shut the door before I could see you. I didn’t want to be amongst all the other interruptions in your life that vanish as soon as you hit block, or be the reason for your reflex of self-protection. So I went away without saying goodbye, keeping it in my pocket. But here, talking honestly in your own gentle manner, I can sense that something has changed. A tiny authorization. A small glow. It was enough for me to respond not only with words but with commitment to everything you wrote. That is exactly what I am indebted to you for: your time, not your value judgments. The way you portray yourself is not a mere characterization but a look - a look that shows how your total inner world is affected and how your heart is both your guide and ...

Excerpt from an email I never sent #10

 There are days when I feel like you regret having me in your life. Like when someone wants milk but gets coffee instead, or how someone wants gold but got silver instead, and then there's the rush of feeling disappointed that comes after. I hope you don't have that kind of regret, where you would exchange anything just so you could turn back time and make me disappear. I know I am not someone you wished for with your eyes closed and heart hoping, but please do not regret having me. I hope my existence does not bring you any discomfort. I hope that, hearing my name come up on television or the radio, won't give you panic attacks and those kinds of stomachaches that come from stress. I hope seeing me in person won't give you the fright. To be honest, I do not, and never wanted to be remembered as your biggest mistake. I am pretty sure I am not one, but the look in your eyes sometimes makes me think otherwise. I try not to ask too much because I also do not want you to re...

Thanatos is a familiar friend

I wonder how Thanatos will conduct himself, When it finds me in a state of unreservedly perished. Will it halt befuddled, Wondering who took me, Did the poison work before he arrived? Or did I self-destruct Because it definitely does not seem like I'm capable of doing so. I wonder if he will be shocked when it hits him That there's nothing left to aver No soul attached, No breath to purloin, Just a body to burn. Or will he chuckle silently, Because the day finally arrived. Where I shall be free. For he recognizes I've been dead inside for ages. And I have been preparing my own memorial service, long before Thanatos came down and showed up.
