I’ve been having a hard time without you. Truthfully, I didn’t think I would, but it’s hard not to grieve three years together.
I’ve been trying not to run away from what I’m feeling, but maybe I have been a little bit. My anxiety has been through the roof and my heart aches, but I don’t fully understand it because this time it’s different.
I miss being yours. I miss loving you. I miss the memories we have together. I miss feeling safe. I know we wouldn’t have worked, but what we had was real and a lot of it was good.
In these moments of panic, I just want to go back. I want you to hold me and tell me everything will be okay. But I know that we can’t go back there. That place doesn’t exist anymore.
Idk why last time it felt easier, maybe because I didn’t have to face the real world just yet. Now I do. And it’s really hard without you. You have no idea how hard it is.
I know I have a tough exterior, but you know how soft I am. And I hate not being able to talk to you about it. Even though you didn’t always make me feel better, I know you tried.
It’s a weird world out there. I’m trying to be purposeful. I’m trying to do a lot of things you taught me. But something feels off. God I wish I could talk to you about it.
I guess I have to learn how to build a home for myself again. Thank you for being my home for so long.
I’m not ready to say goodbye yet. As much as I want to, I know I’m not there yet. So I’m going to be patient with myself.
I love you.
