PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It’s been just over two months, and I’m finding it hard to say goodbye. The thought of living without you is heartbreaking. You’ll always have a special place in my heart. You weren’t my first. You weren’t my last. You were somewhere in the middle, but you left an impression that will stick with me for the rest of my life.

You weren’t anything special other than the fact that you touched me in a way I didn’t think was possible. Right when you came into my life I was feeling like no one could love me. You didn’t. But I know you cared about me. And that is enough. That proves to me that I am lovable.

I think of each moment: our first and last kiss in the same corner of the office staircase, the look of desire in your eyes, our 4-hour conversation in the park under the stars, that night we held each other like it meant something.

I think of every word you said but most of all when you called me “wonderful”. I don’t know why you did, and it may be an exaggerated term but that will be the one word that will stay in my mind when I think of you.

Thank you for everything you were to me. Thank you for being attracted to me. Thank you for desiring me. Thank you for making me smile. But most of all, thank you for listening when I had no one else to talk to. And thank you for reaching out to me when I was drowning in self-pity.

You changed my whole outlook on life. You made me see myself as beautiful, inside and out. I am far from perfect. I am highly flawed. But I now see that I have the potential to be someone’s love.

So I leave you now with this goodbye. I will never forget you.
