It seems that we were never truly in love, but rather just some two lost souls who happened to cross paths briefly. I had the urge to reach out to you, I clearly resisted, I feared that we would both end up lost again and things would’ve gotten much messier.
I write this with the hope that you understand the sincerity of my words, even if you may not have experienced them the way I did. I wanted to protect and support you, I wanted to fight off the world for you but I now realize that it is ultimately yours to reclaim. So I step aside to not get in your way.
You don’t have the ability to feel, to understand, to empathize even. That’s something I’ve had to come to terms with. And it’s frustrating for me and everyone else who cared. But I’ve learned that I can’t change who you are or how you experience emotions. Just know that it takes good strength to open our hearts so wide. Honor them and let them be heard.
Despite everything, I pray that somehow you recognize your worth and please see that you’re already everything you wanted to be. Thoughts of you will always remind me of the capacity I have to love.
