An open letter
Dear You,
There has been so much that I have wanted to say to you but due to certain circumstances I have to refrain from you.
Thank you. Thank you for all that you gave to me. I honestly appreciate it to my core. Without you, there would be no me. Without you, I would not have laughter or joy.
You, I have loved more than I ever should have. Still. I have bled for you. Because of you and in spite of you.
I have placed my broken body next to yours after you were finished with me. I was loyal like that.
I learned to no longer scream. To no longer wince. To no longer cry. And eventually, to no longer feel. We were young. Maybe this is what love was supposed to feel like.
This is what love will always feel like. I have ever only loved you.
