Our love was destined to be just a few pages story.
We were in love, but in the end, we were just a beautiful chapter in each other's lives. Have you ever felt like you could never truly let someone go? Because it was actually so special, you'll always have a piece of them with you. Every memory, every laugh, and even the terrible moments are preserved. It's now as much a part of you as your job. Letting go of them is more akin to realizing that the book series you've been reading won't have the happy finish you'd hoped for. How could they leave the series unfinished? What about all the anticipation? What are character arcs? What is the story's central theme? Well, the writers are no longer together, therefore that's the end of it. Then. The years pass, and before you know it, the writers are back to finish what they started. You love them, but you understand that they must do what their heart and mind desire. And who knows, maybe they'll find their way back home, and we'll be lucky enough to be considered home. You let them go, realizing that no matter how many times you reread the previous book the authors wrote, the next page is blank. Every now and then, there are whispers and small droplets of story and detail. A foreshadowing of a heartbreaking story. Only when everything comes together perfectly does that story get the happy ending it deserves. When two people are separated, anything can happen. Someone meets someone new, people make incompatible life decisions, or people simply grow apart. Accepting reality for what it is is what letting go entails. Two people who do not want to give up their entire outlook and foundations in life for the sake of the other, because doing so would mean a slow and painful death for them both in terms of mental capacity. One day, the time will be right. All the love, C
