The Unopened Letter

A letter sat in a drawer, that once written, was never sent!

Dear Lover,

 

Its been so long, almost 12 years since we were together and not a day goes by when I don't think of you. Life has been so different and almost cruel since the day we parted.

 

I remember the life we planned together all those years ago, but my life hasn't even come close.

 

I've watched you grow and blossom from a distance and it fills me with great pride to see the beautiful, strong young woman you have grown into. I know we talk every now and again but I regret that I haven't been by your side through out your journey. I know that is mostly of my own doing.

 

But the truth of it is, I still love you. I always have and I always will. There has never been anyone else that has compared to you in any sense. What we shared was so passionate, so intense and so natural. I remember everything as if it was yesterday. I remember your eyes, your smile, how beautiful you looked in the morning sunlight. I remember how awful it was to be apart from you and it's been like that ever since.

 

I love you so completely and you not being by my side has been the hardest thing ever.

I know things are different now and you have the life you planned only with someone else but I can not deny my feelings anymore. They have never changed, I have simply buried them deep within.

 

I ask nothing of you but I simply want to say, there will never be another you.

 

If ever you feel the same then you know where I will be, but hurry my love for time is running short. My light is starting to dim, the darkness is closing in and I fear that it may soon be time. So I leave you this letter so you know how I truly feel. Wether I watch you from a far or from above that will never change.

 

Forever yours.....
