Dear Unknown

I know that I loved you and you loved me but I also knew you loved me in a different way then I had hoped-for.

And maybe we just simply weren't meant to be and that's okay because seeing you and talking to you is enough for me.

Most beautiful things are seen not touched. Her love was quite different. It was something that only stars can relate with. So bright and dark at the same time.

So, in the dark night that was lit up with stars I had no hope. For the first time in my life I was hopelessly in love with something incapable of loving with no pain.

Now I love her the same and maybe not the love I had once hoped for but that is okay. I no longer think love and pain have to come as the same. I am happy to love the stars the way a  stargazer would I don't expect her love in return.

My love comes from friendship and trust I no longer love her in a way that is painful.

I find myself moving on from the stars I once knew and visiting galaxies the are new.

Love, an old friend
