#things remembered

The ghosts of the life we lived together still linger in the empty space where you used to be. I wonder if you ever did become a better person, if you continued to take that 2 hour train ride for who you loved, for who you left me for, if you’re happy. I am happy, I am whole, I am free. Years later, even when the ghosts come knocking at my door, I’m no longer afraid of them. We shared time and space together, they will always be a part of me. You will always be a part of me and still that does not mean that I give you more power over me than you deserve. I loved you once, and maybe in some other universe, I still do. I hope you are a better person. I hope by now you’ve created the life you dreamed of, still I’m not sure you deserve it and so I hope you’ve changed. I hope you’ve become the person who deserves the good things. 

So. I wonder if I'm weird for this or the only one, does anyone else bawl uncontrollably like a little baby during the scene in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind when Joel goes back to his childhood in his mind and it starts raining inside his living room, and that beautiful nostalgic score plays and you see fuzzy memories of him reaching for the rain and either him or Clementine starts singing row row row your boat
