To the person I'll never send this to.

To the person I'll never send this to.

A Story by Ash

To the person whom I'll never send this to. You have been a part of my life for what it seems like forever, although I'm too young to truly comprehend the concept of forever. You taught me that without words so much can be said. What the eyes convey, is impossible to be translated into mere words. You taught me how to be scared of letting my guard down, terrified of getting hurt and at the same time be prepared to risk everything and fall. You taught me how to take risks in life, and chose the unknown and leap out of my comfort zone. You taught me how to trust someone with your soul and be at bliss. You taught me how to love endlessly, selflessly and devotedly. You taught me what it feels like to feel butterflies and think of your face while humming my favorite songs. You taught me what it feels like to be so completely loved and then you taught me that you had the power to take it all away, and you did. To the person whom I'll never send this to, thank you for teaching me that the most beautiful things in life are sometimes nothing more than a mirage. You taught me that nothing lasts forever, that promises are as easily broken as they are made and that love is nothing but just a word. You taught me that while to one person love may mean an eternity, to another it's nothing more than a temporary emotion. Because I would never hurt the person I love the way you hurt me. But thank you, had you not broken my heart, I would have never learned how to stand on my own. Thank you for teaching me the importance of conveying your feelings, because you stopped doing it. Thank you for teaching me that saying 'i love you' is not enough, proving it is, because you stopped showing it. Thank you for teaching me that time doesn't change anything because the only thing that changed was you. Thank you for letting me learn that I am important all on my own, because to you I no longer was. To the person whom I'll never send this to, like all good teachers you also made me learn when I was wrong. Thank you for teaching me that I was wrong to give you the power to make me so extremely and blissfully happy, because with that, also came the power to break me, and you did. Thank you for teaching me that I was at fault to believe that what we had was real, because if it was, it wouldn't have shattered. Thank you for teaching me that I was at fault to trust you with my love because you told me you were 'no good', and I kept believing that for me you are. Thank you for teaching me that love is nothing but a weakness, the closer anyone gets to it, the quicker and deadly it becomes. It breaks you inside and out, leaving you to mend with the pieces.

Very strong piece on the broken heart. So Sorry he had his own agenda then ran like most cowards do. Be glad you are rid of this fool. There is another one around the corner. Just waiting.

I am who I am, My tears have shaped me into whom I have become. My words, a melody Rising from a tortured heart. And in the midst of fire, From the ashes I've emerged. Stronger than ever. more..
