I knew we weren’t meant to be together. It wasn’t possible for it to work out and I knew it from the very second I laid eyes on you.
You were just a passenger in my life and I knew it as soon as you walked in. I still want to tell you that I’m grateful to you, though.
We shared some special and sincere moments that I’ll never forget… I’ll always remember all the kisses and hugs too.
You let me be who I am around you and I have to thank you for that. It was the greatest gift you could’ve given me.
You never cared about the way I wore my hair and which clothes I wore either. Simply put, you saw me for who I am despite all that.
We weren’t meant to end up together forever, but you were always there for me. Thank you for that, and don’t feel sad that it’s over.

Sometimes, things just don’t work out no matter how much people care about each other. Thank you for sticking around anyway.
Now that it’s over though, I realize that it had to be. We weren’t supposed to be together forever, and that’s okay.
Didn’t we have something special anyway? Wasn’t it something we’ll always treasure and secretly reminisce about?
There’s someone else who’s your other half, and there’s another half of me too out there…
Somehow, though, we managed to make each other feel whole for a little while.
It was a fun part of our lives that we’ll hide under a mysterious smirk that only we can understand.
Thank you for that spark in my eyes I get whenever I remember that part of my life.
Even though it was just something temporary, I really fell for you… Could I call it love?

I don’t know, but it sure felt like falling in love and you were the only person in the world I wanted to be with.
Once it was over, I was hurt and my entire world collapsed.
Was there something I could’ve done differently? Would it be possible to keep you in my life if I’d said or done something that I didn’t say or do?
It felt like we created our own little universe where we were heroes just for one day…
You were the king and I was the queen, but then our crowns fell off and it hurt.
After feeling so safe, suddenly, it all disappeared like it never existed in the first place.
All that was left was the painful thought that something went terribly wrong and maybe I could’ve done something to stop it.
Could I have stopped it, though? How could something so amazing just turn into a painful memory so soon?

You were still roaming inside my heart like it was your sanctuary and I didn’t want to let you go.
I wasn’t ready to, and it shouldn’t have happened – at least not so quickly.
Didn’t I deserve closure? I couldn’t let myself have one though because it would mean that our story was really over.
You weren’t the person I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with, and I know that… But forgetting you seemed an impossible task.
It was like trying to forget how to walk and talk… how to let my heart beat… and it was beating for you.
Now, it beats for someone else, and I thank you for that. If you’d have stuck around, I would have never known true love.
I would’ve never realized that my soulmate was waiting for me the entire time… and I would have never been safe in his embrace.
I just wanted to love someone and the urge for love made me refuse to accept the reality.
You weren’t the love I was looking for and I know that now.
The truth was just so painful that I didn’t want to see it. I just wanted to love you and give you my heart for all eternity.

It would’ve been foolish and I thank you for stopping me. You brought logic back into my life, despite it breaking my heart.
It broke me that I was in love with an illusion and imagined spending my life by your side.
While true love was staring me in the face, I could only look at yours and it hypnotized me.
I couldn’t have even imagined that there was something much better than what we had. What did we have anyway?
Let’s not name it and keep it our little secret, hidden in that look I get when I think of you.
You know it wasn’t real love and I know it too.
When you really love someone, you like yourself too. You love who you are when you’re around them.
The truth is, I wasn’t myself around you and I loved the feeling.

Now, what we had is just a beautiful memory that led me into the arms of the man I was always meant to be with.
You know, life is a journey, and you were an adventure I’ll always treasure. But I’ve reached my destination and it’s in the heart of another man.
Can I help you with something regarding your next love? No one will wait for you forever – she’ll walk away when she’s done with the adventure.
I wanted to change for you and that was wrong, I see that now. Now, I see myself the way the man who truly loves me sees me – as my true self.
With you, I fell into a rabbit hole and entered Wonderland. I’m now with someone I have nothing to wonder about.
I know that he loves me and that I love him. He has my heart now and you were just a wish my instincts made me try to make come true.
It took me a while, but I’m back in the real world now. And you know what? The man who loves me turned it into a fairytale…

Do you know the difference between your soulmate and forever love?
With you, I was a lost girl searching for herself. He found me and showed me who I am by letting me see myself through his eyes.
You mean a lot to me, even though we weren’t meant to be together… But what I have now means more.
Thank you for helping me get there and know that you’ll always be a special spark in my eyes.
