A letter to you that I can never send!

Hi …

It’s so wonderful to be here, at last.

I know your mind is a whirlwind, but for now, stay here with me. Be my refuge today, where I can rest my head and find peace.

Today, I ask you to simply listen. Hear my heartbeat. Feel my breath. Listen to the whispers of the wind and the silent drift of the clouds.

Be my mirror today. Smile when I smile, share a tear when I weep. When the wind tangles my hair, be the gentle hand that sets it back in place.

Be my friend, my lover, my guardian today. Embrace me tightly so I can hear your breath, feel your heartbeat.

Gaze into my eyes and feel what my heart holds for you. Hold my hand, let me touch your soul.

Be present, in this moment. For I know, in the next, you may not be mine to keep.

Our paths diverge, our journeys differ.

My heart longs for your glance. When our eyes meet, I know you feel it too. Your smile is the dawn my eyes await.

Our meetings are rare, and the world surrounds us. Yet, in a sea of fleeting moments, be my constant for just one.

That one heartbeat when my soul recognizes its mate.

Soon, you will leave, and so will I. This moment, ephemeral, will fade. You have your place, and I have mine.

If only I could make you mine, but I know it wouldn’t be right. Still, I will cherish this single moment forever.

It will remain vivid until my last breath. I’ll feel your warmth even on the coldest nights.

I’ll etch your touch upon my skin as if you were still here. Your smile will linger in my eyes, making them sparkle.

I’ll never forget you. I hope you remember me, even for a fleeting moment.

This one-sided love is mine alone. I’m sorry I cannot share it with you. You have your own destiny, but I know this will never be.

But if it could, would it be right? I wonder.

You may never know, but you will be in my final seven minutes of life.

Thank you for the butterflies. Thank you for awakening emotions that had long lain dormant.

Thank you for rekindling the flame of love in a heart that had nearly forgotten it.

I hope, one day, you understand.
