I hear your words, look at your pictures online every chance I get.
and every line feels like a mirror I\u2019ve been running from.
Yes,
you\u2019re right.
I lost you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I lost the girl who gave me more than I deserved,
the one who fought for me while I was busy fighting my own pride.
I see it now,
how you carried me when I should have carried you,
how you stayed when I gave you reasons to walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the truth is,
I thought you\u2019d never leave.
I thought your love was endless,
that no matter how many times I failed,
you\u2019d still be there.
But love isn\u2019t a prison,
and hearts don\u2019t heal when they\u2019re ignored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I remember the way you looked at me,
like I was enough, even when I wasn\u2019t.
And I threw it away.
I let my ego speak louder than your silence,
and my silence spoke louder than the \u201cI love yous\u201d you needed to hear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now\u2026
your absence is heavy.
Your laughter doesn\u2019t echo in my world anymore,
and the warmth you carried is gone.
And yes, you haunt me.
Not as a ghost,
but as a reminder of what I destroyed with my own hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You deserved better,
and you found it.
And while it kills me to imagine you smiling for someone else,
I know you earned that happiness,
because I couldn\u2019t give it to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So here I stand,
not asking for forgiveness,
not begging for a second chance,
just admitting the truth:
I was a fool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if loving you was my test,
then losing you was my lesson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
it is the hardest lesson I ever learnt I guess they were right when they said that you only miss the sun when it starts to snow, only know your lover when you let her go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
