You were a breath of fresh air.
Pain changes people, and I couldn’t agree more to it. I was one to believe in pure love and happy endings, but since reality (always) says otherwise, I have learned to be cold, to not get affected and attached, and rejected people after that bad heartbreak.
It was hell lot of a work indeed, shits of moving on and all, but eventually I have gotten used to being alone and contented, and I still am, for the longest time now. I’ve been pretty okay being free and independent, discovering things on my own, even the happiness I think I deserve.
But you made me feel otherwise — you made me feel alive again. You made it difficult for me to resist my feelings every time you held me. It’s as if all the missing pieces of my heart returned and became whole once more. Though I know how temporary we were, you know I never wanted to stop, ‘cause right here with you was once in a lifetime. Oh I wish you stayed, I wish we didn’t fade.
No matter how everything seemed right from the beginning, I always knew you won’t ever be ready. I want you to know though — falling for you will always be worth it regardless of the outcome. Baby, you are worth it.
Well, I guess, not all that’s beautiful is long-lasting. But I have always believed though, that everything happens for a reason. Our paths may have crossed because you needed to feel better for a while, to regain the lost faith in yourself, to teach you to love yourself. On the one hand, I needed to try taking risks again, to feel again. ‘Cause one way or another, we should always try to fight through the chaos that resides within our hearts and minds.
People change so that we can learn to let go, good things fall apart so better things can fall together, and sometimes we don’t get closure. We just move on, no matter how bad it hurts.
