Broken Wishes

I write to you, Can, knowing you will never read this.
You're with another and I will always want that happiness for you.

I write this for myself over everything.

I think mostly, I need to come to terms with what I've lost.

I still love you Can, I will always love you.
And I understand that this love is unrequited.
Where you are now in the arms of another, I am left with nothing.

I write this because all that matters to me is that you got what you always wanted, what you needed, what I couldn't give you.

Hope.

I never thought I'd write something like this, like a diary entry kind of thing.
But unpopular opinion, I know, I do like Polen's character. There were points that she was mean and I didn't like her that much before but I think there was more to her than met the eye. I think behind some of the comments and the ways she has acted, she could be quite complex. I mean she's had to deal with the disinterest of her long term partner which has led to a breakup, I wouldn't be too happy to be honest if I was in her shoes.

I just had this random idea in my head while I was studying yesterday after finishing my chapter for Set You Free. I feel like Polen is so overlooked or disliked in the EK community and I wanted to give her the limelight for a bit. Dunno whether you'll like, but here's a short one!
