Tonight, I’m finally saying goodbye to you, not because I don’t love you, not because you’re not good enough, but because I’m done hurting myself for you.

You make me feel like I’m more than just a human being breathing the same air you breathe.

When we talk about love, there will be always happiness and sadness. These two will always be there. These two are the Ying and Yang of love. We will never know the true value of happiness without getting sad or getting hurt and same goes with sadness.

I know people will call me stupid for this. But Love, I can still see the truth in your lonely eyes. I can see the long lost stars in the corner of your eyes – you know that the stars are my weakness. I see the boundless hopes of wanting me back into your life and that’s why I’m coming back to you.

They said people come and go and the only thing that’s constant in this world is change. I don’t know if it’s okay or not because as of now, changes suck and I’m so tired of seeing people leave me.

You’re always there, in my dreams, in my head and in my heart. I still remember how it feels – you holding my arms tightly; your hands were so warm and soft.

I tried to ignore the fact that I’m falling, because I know too much about falling in love. When you’re in love, you allow yourself to be blinded of the reality.

If you can, please run away from me, because I know life is full of changes and if I place my happiness on you and you disappear, I don’t know how much of myself will remain.

In your smile, I was lost. In your touch, I felt wanted. In your voice, I had chills of happiness. And in your warm hug, I felt valued.
