Her parting words were nothing more than a pack of lies, and she should know better than that. We’ve shared too much for it to be true what she said. Even if what she said weren’t lies, that would just mean she lied even more during it all. Either way, she lied to me.
Since I was aware of what she did last time, her leaving me did not completely destroy me this time around. No, I came prepared with shields raised and was ready for the worst. That’s not to say it didn’t hurt, it hurt like hell, but at least it was not totally unexpected.
So now I am gone forever, and finally I know how this chapter of my life ends. In other words, more writing to be done. I have almost every written conversation with her logged, every piece of poetry conserved. I may turn it into a grand musical piece a la Marillion, I don’t know yet. I am not ready to face it all right now.
She has a lot of issues, and I was fully aware of her problems. But I was willing to take her with all of them. Nevertheless, it was what ultimately did us in. She could not be honest to me, and even though she kept saying she was sorry for the things she did, she kept on doing them just the same.
She said she was trying to change, trying to get better, which was the main reason I even gave this another chance at all. But nothing did change, nothing at all.
I guess the people that actually read this are wondering why I even loved her in the first place, and all I can say is that even though she put me through hell, the good times we shared were absolutely beautiful. It were moments of indescribable bliss, when she would finally lower those walls around her and let me bathe in her light.
That light has faded though, I have not seen it for a very long time. I had hoped that when I did came back to her she would show it to me again, but sadly, it was the opposite that happened. She turned into her alter ego; heartless.
And yet, even after all this, I’m still too good a person to hate her. I still love her, but the person I love is dead. She buried her. I tried my best to find her, but she was gone. What once was so easy for me to find has dissapeared, so there’s nothing left for me to go back to.
I truly hope she will get some professional help to deal with her problems, she will need to if she ever wants to be able to love someone fully, and unconditionally. And I still wish nothing more than the best for her, so I hope she finds what she’s looking for some day.
So now it is time for me to grieve, to be in sorrow over what I have lost, and then I will have to move on and try and find that someone special for me, who I know is out there.
I live to love, and I will die for mine.
