This is a letter
from me to you
a letter to tell you
that I liked you
deeply
truly
deadlessly
that I want to show you how you sparkle in my eyes
how I want to hold you sweetly
tell you that you're enough
that I was once again ready to take a leap of faith
risking crashing down again
but then reality hit
the wounds screamed
reminding me of the blood I shed every time I gambled with my heart
if I was the me of a few months ago I would have blindly jumped
blindly sacrificed everything
for love
the me of now
isn't going to sacrifice herself anymore
the me of now decided to let go of you
to keep the happy memories, the smiles, the sweetness of our moments
and let go of my feelings for you
In this moment right now and after everything that happened between us
being with you will only break us apart
because we can't guarantee that we're not going to get hurt
I'm not willing to fight for two and break anymore
In this letter from me to you
I love you
and I let you go
this is not a goodbye
you'll still be one of my favorite people in this world
but these feelings I let go
As the sun sets
" The sunset is beautiful isn't it ? "
