To D
I loved you.
For months, I had to remind myself that I didn’t love you so you could love me back. I loved you because I loved you. Even when I didn’t know why.
It hurt so much when I learned you didn’t feel the same, but I had to put up. It was a painful process to learn to control my feelings. I was scarred, but I learned to survive. I developed the power to love myself more than I loved you. I put on my cape for winning over unrequited love, and nothing will make me take off that cape– not even your comeback. Not even your say-so.
Dear, I have already put the D in loved.
It’s over now. I am not going to waste the days I’ve cried as I tried to pull out Cupid’s unforbidding arrow, especially now that I know you are not the same guy I fell in love with anymore. You’ve changed. And those changes may have led you to love me, but the thing is: I’ve also changed.
We are not who we used to be. I am sorry, D, and I hope we both find the right people at the right time. It took us years to become friends again so please let us not let love ruin us again. Afterall, I will never put the END in friendship.
