One night. One look. That's all it took for my life to change forever.
I still remember the way you looked sitting alone in that dim restaurant. I still remember wanting you in that moment. I still remember the way my heart was beating so fast, I was sure you'd notice it immediately as we moved closer. I still remember the way your hands felt on my body. I still remember the way your lips felt against mine. I still remember the way I fell for you when I was trying so hard not to.
And I still remember you leaving me. No warning. No explanation, you were just gone. As badly as I wanted to be fine, because I knew, from the moment we locked eyes, our story was destined to end. I knew you weren't going to be my forever. I knew. But I didn't know our story was going to be incomplete. I didn't know the story of us was going to end without any kind of resolve. Now I'm devastated, with no idea how to move on when the ending caught me by surprise?! And I'm trying to understand, how you are just fine? Already moved on.. and the worst part, happily engaged?! After everything that happened between us. You didn't even tell me why or goodbye. You just left. Like you never loved me, definitely not like I loved you with every part of my heart. I was foolish to think love would change our destiny. It didn't. Now you're fine and I'm the fool. I guess for love to change people's destiny, both parties have to be involved. I hope you see something that reminds you of me..and I hope you think back on how much I loved you and how real this was for me. I hope one day you regret walking away. Because you were it for me. My love for you is real. Now I have to learn how to unlove you.
But what am I supposed to do if I can't?!
