I need to stop trying to forget. Everytime I forget, I remember it all.
It's quite surprising, now that I see couples amongst my friends and all, there's no envious feeling that I have to suppress. I can truly appreciate and be happy for them to have found their half-apples, to just know that they are feeling blissful in the arms of another.
Even though we're through, I still want you to know that I'm grateful for you to have been a big part of my life. We may never be friends again, let alone bestfriends, but you're still the one to have had a clear view of what I am inside.
All the reminders of you, your smell, your hair, your jacket, your domo, your diary and your trinket, are slowly losing their effect on me. The lasting impression you left on my pillow, my couch, are slowly fading away. Time has been kind to me.
Tis better to have loved and lost, than not to have loved at all.
I want to savour the freedom that I have now to concentrate on other things that should have taken priority in my life long time ago.
I admit that there were and still are times when I look up into the sky and wish so hard for me to wake up with all memories of us together, erased from my mind. That's how much you affect me, even when you're not truly there. And I hope for you to feel better, like how I am now, knowing that there was someone who once loved and cherished me for who I truly am.
There's nothing wrong with being me, since you loved it.
& To all reading this, single or happily attached or somewhere in between, you don't need to have a girlfriend/boyf to make you happy. Whenever you think otherwise, just take a step back and inhale deeply and smile at someone you don't know. When you see the flash of a smile from that stranger, it'll just make your day.
But it's also all right to be happy with whoever you're with now, from the bottom of your heart. But when life decides to make things miserable, wake up early in the morning to climb up onto the roof top and absorb all the strength provided by the sun.
Maybe that's the hidden secret why plants don't ever cry.
