It was that May, you know the one. Gloom, cold air, and nerves consumed me but step by step I convinced myself to walk through the doors. I was so lost because I couldn't find you but you called out my name and in that moment, I just knew.

My soul clicked into place with yours that day. I instantly knew that I wanted to be by your side for a very long time. And so it began--our journey. Every thing feels right when we talk. I've never doubted for a moment you belong in my life. You taught me discipline and self improvement while I taught you emotions and that you were capable of being loved. When you were tired, I wanted to drain my own energy just so you could have some more. When you were hurt and had moments of self doubt, I wished you could love yourself as much as I loved you. I saw what others didn't. You truly are a special one, J.

So how did we end up like this? On the path to becoming strangers, I mean. I knew you would leave one day but, nothing prepared me for that. I want to believe this is the right person, wrong timing so badly. But I know. Deep down, I know that this will never work. We're not giving up on each other. We're just letting go...

Anyway, I'm glad that May happened

because it brought me to you.
