THE FIRST AND LAST LETTER I’LL EVER WRITE


Finally, the time has come for me to do the hardest thing in the world…to let you go. I guess it all ends here. I’ve come this far. I loved you from that very first day but this love of mine would just take me nowhere. I have to let you find your own happiness even if it’s not with me. I’m writing this down coz I have to get this out of me. It’s been great knowing a person like you and I know I’ll never feel this way about another person again. I don’t know, maybe you were just a phase in my fairy tale adventure; maybe not. Maybe you were the real thing but I’ll never get the chance of finding out, will I? There were times when I thought you felt something for me too. But I was wrong. I must have read the signs differently. I don’t blame you. Maybe we’re not mean for each other that way. I guess this is what we will always have, nothing more. It’s finished at last. I’m letting go now. I lost you once. Boy, did it hurt me like hell. But I’m still here, right? I made it so I guess I’ll be okay. I’m tougher this time. Just make sure that you did the right decision. I really hope you find what you’re looking for. But no matter what happens, there’s no turning back…for you, for me, for both of us. I deserve some pride here, right? I almost gave up my whole heart; luckily I got it back just in time. I guess there will never be another chance, but if one day you realized that I’m the girl for you, well I’m sorry. I’m sorry coz you never gave me the second glance when you could have long before. My heart’s closed now and I don’t even have the key anymore. I’ve thrown it away because of you. But if ever you find it (lucky for you if you can), then it’s your chance to take, not mine.

And so it comes to this. I’m sealing this letter with a vow: I will never feel that way about you again. And if I find myself on the verge of taking that same leap, I’d rather give away my heart to someone else, even to someone not worth it at all so I won’t have to suffer the same fate I had when I loved you.
