You may wonder what is left for me to write in this tattered old diary of mine for i have left this world. I thought i could be free, free from the heartbreak and memories. But no, apart of my soul is here, for i have not let go the part of me in this world. You may wonder " So are you alive?" " Where are you now?" These past years i have been wandering around the world as a lost soul. Deep down, my heart refuses to let go of him. I should but i can't but maybe now, i can.
As i swept my gaze throughout the entire ballroom, I wonder how big was his wedding, is he happy? Sad? I don't know as i have yet to catch a glimpse of him. *click* the lights go out and a subtle warm light glows from an entrance at the back. The door is lightly swung open and his bride comes to view. She looks absolutely stunning,with her long cascading wedding gown,white with sprinkles of silver gems trailing from the top of of her right shoulder to the end of her gown. A big smile seemed like it was permanently etched on her face. As she reached the stage, he came into view. He wore a fitted suit and his hair was neatly combed and he looked absolutely divine. He eyes were lit up in glee and his mouth stretched into the biggest smile, showing his dimples. As they said their vows, his eyes shined with love and happiness;and so did his soon to be wife. "You may now kiss the bride." As he leaned in to kiss her, I suddenly realised that after all this time, I was holding on to something that was not mine. He was truly happy and i would gladly sacrifice my happiness for his. So why did i hold a grudge against him? Why did i cling on to him when he was already happy and contented with his life? This was true release; accepting and knowing when to let go. It took me years to realise this, I was too selfish,too narrow minded.A tear slid down my cheeks as a ghost of a smile appeared on my lips. As i felt myself fading away, I could only smile and relish in this beautiful moment; when true love is happening right before you're eyes and when you learnt to finally let go.
