Dear Alec,

I know that no one will ever understand why I am writing to you but here is why. You are my friend. You are a hero to so many and to me. The way a child brought up on hatred for a world no one really understands grew into a man with so much love in his heart for the misunderstood. When I look at you and Magnus I see a beautiful couple and a bright future. You are incredible and have shown many people that things can change and they will. I know that you, Alec, will lead the shadowhunters into a new world where the shadows aren't just filled with beasts such as myself but beauty.

You almost did it you know? You almost convinced me to stay. Not to run from what I had become but to embrace it but so shall the river flow not all can change. I wish I could stay and see the world that will come to be because of you but alas my dear friend I must depart. Please don't let them be sad for me, let them know that I was dead long before these letters were even written. 

It's difficult to write this to you because I know that you will judge me not for my actions but for not realising the consequence but you should know me well enough by now to know my brain never did work as quick as my heart. The thing is now my heart does not work at all and I fear that without it to guide me I will lose myself. So as one last favour look after them and be glorious Alec just as you were born to be.

It is a short but sweet goodbye as I don't wish to waste such precious  time. Go home to your family who need you and please don't remember me because I know you will remember as this thing instead of Simon.

Goodbye and live a long, healthy life. 

Simon.
