"He was my anchor, and now I'm adrift in a sea of heartache."

Hey Kieran,

School has been incredibly hard without you. Everything feels off balance, like a world turned upside down. I see you and Sofia together every day, and it's like a dagger to my heart each time. Today, I saw you both sitting on the bench in class, that we once shared. The same bench where we'd laugh, share secrets, and dream about the future. Watching you there with her, it felt like a part of me shattered all over again.

Do you remember how we used to sit there, side by side, our shoulders touching? How we'd talk about everything and nothing, finding comfort in each other's presence? It was our little heaven in the chaotic world of school. Now, seeing you with her in our place, it's like those memories are being ripped away from me, replaced with a painful reality I can't escape.

I tried to focus in class today, but my mind kept drifting back to you. My grades are slipping because I can't concentrate. Every glance at you and Sofia pulls me deeper into this abyss of sadness and regret. I see you smiling at her, and it's like a knife twisting in my chest. It's so hard to breathe, to think, to be.

My parents are worried about me. They keep asking what's wrong, why my grades are dropping, why I seem so distant. I can see the disappointment and concern in their eyes, and it kills me that I'm causing them so much pain. I want to explain, but how can I make them understand that my heart is breaking every single day?

I feel so alone, Kieran. The friends I used to hang out with don't understand what I'm going through. They try to be there for me, but it's not the same. No one gets it. No one knows how much it hurts to see the person you love with someone else, to feel replaced and forgotten.

You were my anchor, my rock. You made everything better, and now I'm just drifting, lost in this sea of hurt and confusion. I miss the comfort and support you used to give me. I miss the way you'd listen to me, really listen, and make me feel like I mattered. Now, I feel like I'm invisible, like nothing I do can ever bring back what we had.

I keep wondering if you ever think about me, about us. Did any of it mean anything to you? Was it real, or was it just a passing phase? Seeing you with Sofia makes me question everything. Did you ever care about me, or was it all just an illusion?

I don't know how to move forward, Kieran. I don't know how to navigate this life without you. Every day feels like a struggle, a painful reminder of what I've lost. I miss you so much, and it hurts more than I can put into words. I wish I could turn back time, go back to when things were simple and we were happy. But all I have now are memories that haunt me and a future that feels so bleak without you.

Please take care of yourself. I hope you're happy. I really do.

Maeve
