The Letter I wish you wrote

The Letter I wish you wrote

A Poem by AJNEP
"

Its so hard to move on when the words you wanted to hear or read were never uttered...

"
Hi Boo,
Our love has been the guiding light in this crazy maze I call a life. 
It saved me from a lifetime of darkness.
I felt the heat of your sunshine,
the warmth of the heat that you radiated,
and the safety that the light you brought to my life.
I found the confidence to step into the light once again,
I didn't fear the heat, I feared nothing but yearned for everything.
I was so brave that I jumped in without reservations and questions.
No fear just yearning.
Just the need to be with you.
As I adjusted to the light,
When everything was a blur of white and spots of colours.
I felt elated,
Bursts of colours here and there spiked my senses.
And I wanted to see more.
My eyes and heart adjusted to the miracle that was happening around me,
I got more confident, I got greedy.
I wanted more, I wanted to experience everything,
I wanted more than the safety of the net you have set to protect me.
I fought against the net that protected me nourished me,
I bit, Clawed and slashed,
Not knowing it was your loving arms that I was hurting.
But after all the violence you held me tight,
Tended to my wounds,
Fed me nectar to please and nourish me back to health.
I regained my strength and found my balance,
I tried to keep the bond that kept us together,
But the harder I tried the more I wanted to leave the nest,

I kept to myself wondering and waiting,
clarifying what I felt and what I was feeling.
Thinking of how I got to such a crossroad.

Boo. I loved you.
With all my heart and soul.
you woke me up from a deep dark slumber,
nursed me back to health and 
showed me love beyond my expectations.

I woke with nothing but admiration for you...
admiration not love. not even want.

I am so scared that what I am feeling is a mistake,
I have decided long ago that I was yours and you were mine.
But I don't know where else we can turn to.
We've hit the wall.

And its time to choose.

I am sorry my Boo,
for testing our relationship,
I am sorry my Boo,
for making you feel that you weren't enough.
Because you were.
But I wasn't ready.
You pieced me back together,
with so much care and gentleness,
and when I was finally whole.
I realised...
That we were not meant to be,
and my heart broke all over again.
Because I wanted to want you like how I did when I was broken.
It tore me to pieces knowing that this will break you.
That I will break you.
Forgive me...
But it would be better to cut you now,
Than create a deeper wound tomorrow.
This is not what I want,
But this is how it has to be.
I can't be selfish,
Not with you.
Thank you for loving me,
And I am so sorry for breaking you.
It was never my intention,
Please believe that.
