goodbye, my love
can it not be clearer than this?
you used to excite me. the thought of you not only makes me smile, it makes me feel worthy to breathe again. you gave me a new beginning, then, when i felt that i lost not only myself, but everything i hold dear, to my past that just won’t let me be. you made me forget my darkness, by opening my eyes to the normal world, making me realize that there is light in the middle of the tunnel.
you inspired me. i saw myself as a totally different being from the husk that i was, just by basking under your radiance. because of you i aimed to become excellent in everything, just to prove that i am worthy of you. with you i saw myself growing to my fullest potential, and i knew that i was going to be successful just for the simple reason of being with you.
i could never stop talking of and about you. when people ask me about others like you, i adamantly maintain that you are the best, and no one can be better than you.
no one else will ever come close, i swore to them.
why?
because you took care of me. you provided for me. you gave me everything that i wanted. you had honor and integrity. we always had fun, we learned and benefited from each other. you had and were everything that i could ever want in my life.
but what happened?
all of a sudden, you became different. you started to strangle me with your new rules, almost irrational rules. you lost your spontaneity. you started to bore me with the routine that you wanted me to maintain. you stopped having fun with me and the rest of my friends. then you befriended people from another world who have different views, and they did not see me as someone worthy to be with you. these people whispered lies to destroy my friends’ reputations. these people nagged into your ears that i am working against you, and now, they are isolating me from you.
and you listened to their malicious deception. along with my friends, you started to turn your face away from us. you chose to believe your new friends. you are now looking at new faces, fresher faces, who may or may not love you like i do, like we do.
you gave up on me.
you trust them, and listen to them, and have forgotten what we went through together. you have chosen to forget the sacrifices i made for you. you have forgotten all the satisfaction i gave you. for almost two years, i stayed with you, went through danger for you, sacrificed my family and almost everything i have for you.
will they love you like i did? will they give up things for you like i and my friends did? will they stay with you forever? i will not ask you to choose. because i have made up my mind. and i have made my choice.
i am fed up. i am tired. i am finally giving up. it saddens me no end, because i can not deny, that i loved you very very much.
but as with other things, this had to end. with tears in my eyes, and a sad song in my heart, i am saying goodbye.
convergys, you will never be forgotten.
