Curtains closed
In truth, we were just waiting to pull up an white flag,
declaring ourselves finally unable to cope.
Let's let it be. Leave it here.
I've learned
I've learned that you can't make someone love you.
All you can do is be someone who can be loved.
The rest is up to them.
I've learned that no matter how much i care,
some people just don't care back.
I've learned that it takes years to build up trust
and only seconds to destroy it.
I've learned that it's not what you have in your life
but who you have in your life that counts.
I've learned that you can get by on charm for fifteen minutes.
After that, you better know something.
I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do,
but to the best that you can do.
I've learned that it's not what happens to people,
it's what they do about it.
I've learned that no matter how thin you slice it,
there are always two sides.
I've learned that it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.
I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time that you see them.
I've learned that just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean that they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean that they do.
I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry, I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I've learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
I've learned no matter how bad your heart is broken,
the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I've learned that it's hard to determine where to draw the line
between being nice and not hurting people's feeling and standing up for what you believe.
I've learned to love and be loved.
I've learned....

Just anothing ending. Closures are painfully overrated anyway.
I mean, if you remember this, just any of this, knowing who I am, how I've been.
recall how we were, how it all started, how magically it all weaved together.
all the beauty of it, all too miraculous moments, every welcome and farewell,
as vividly and astoundingly as they were,
then you wouldn't have chosen the last words too lightly.
And for that I am sorry
may you forget it all lest you blame it.
I crave you in the most innocent form. I crave to say good night and give you forehead kisses and to say that I adore you when you feel at your worst. I crave you in ways where I just want to be next to you and nothing more or less.
