Rotting truth.

A Poem by Stormy Weather

Simply an unsent letter.

Dear My Catalyst,

I'm sorry. I know I was unfair to you. It's not your fault it didn't work. It's just the way you were born. But, I thought you should know, I was never lying. I knew it was real. When I looked into your eyes, I could see us, together, forever. I wanted to give it all to you. I've made mistakes, but I didn't want to make any with you. You were the perfect, untouched piece of sky that I didn't want to pollute. But, unfortunately, I let you down. You didn't make me crazy. I made myself crazy. I wanted and needed you more than anything on this earth. I don't think I've ever uttered these words before, that flow out with all the truth I could ever own....but, I'm in love with you. You're my best friend. I can be myself with you. I can trust you. When I'm with you, I feel so safe and indestructible. When we laughed, it was an honest laugh. My lover. When we kissed, life made sense. Sadness, loneliness......those didn't exist anymore. I felt whole again. Everything was perfect. When you'd hold me, I knew that was where I belonged. I was truly home, in your arms. You were also, unfortunately, my villain. You made me cry. You made me hate myself. You made me hurt. However, with all that, you made me feel. Out of my numbness, you brought me back to life. I was dead. You made me sad. You made me happy. And, most importantly, you made me love. I loved everything you are. I loved your laugh. I loved your smile. I loved the way you'd play with my hair. I loved your kindness. I loved you. My little everything, please, never change who you are. You are so beautiful. A bright, shining star in a dark galaxy. Be happy. And, always know that I love everything you are. I miss you more and more everyday.

Love Always,

A Memory.
