When you get older, you learn how strange it is to find someone who connects with you on all levels. The older you get the more it hits you that you don't want to lose that person, because of that exact reason.
The more you understand how different life is without that person, and how life becomes more meaningful with them. How every moment spent with them feels unique, even though we're two humans experiencing the same stuff as most people in the world, even though we're not special, it does feel special, because we make it that way. Or sometimes we don't even try, but that's just how it feels.
And that feeling of closeness, of understanding, connecting, of years passing and still not want to be completely away...
How do you give someone like that up?
How do you tell yourself to walk away when all you want is to spend your days with them?
You won't understand this until you get older and then reality hits you harder.
