To All the Boys I Have Loved Before
Thank you.
Thank you for appearing in my life, thank you for allowing me to be near you, thank you for the short time that you've spared to interact with me.
I still remember you after all these days. I remember how you made my days, how you made me feeling giddy inside and smiling ear to ear, how you warmed my heart simply by just existing. I remember how happy you made me. The small child within me awoke and wanting for more.
And everytime we talked? It feels like thousands of angels are singing, calming, soothing. The whole world turned more colourful for a split second.
So, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for letting me fall for you. Even if it's just a short time, even if it's unrequited, even if you don't know it at that time. You've made me the happiest girl in the world.
Yet the time has come and I have to erase every bit of my feelings for you. Still, I will never forget you, I'm just quietly accepting that our time together is over and I have to let you go. It hurts, to be the (only) one who love more yet be the first to step out. But I guess this is the price of being in love, not just to put in effort to show our devotion but also to learn to know our boundaries and letting our loved ones pursue their own happiness.
Wherever you are, no matter what you do, or who you're with, I will always pray for your joy and well-being. I will always be here, cherishing our memory together and tuck it in the quietest corner of my heart.
Love, – zph
