Every time I feel there are no more tears left to cry, they just keep pouring out. Every time I try to distance myself, it draws closer. I miss you more than I could ever imagine. The pain, the emotion, I never knew existed within me. To hear those words come out of your mouth. Ruined. To have that weight placed on my shoulders, I know I shouldn’t have done certain things and that I was wrong too. I just never saw it ending up like this.

The promises. The touch. The laughter. The joy. That look in your eyes, the one that said I was your everything. All a distant memory. Just the feeling of having you by my side. To not know how you are now. To not know anything about your life. To go from everything to nothing. Kills me. 

I don’t understand it all. I don’t think I ever will. And I’m so alone. I’m so lonely, but I don’t ever want anyone to see me like this. I don’t know what to do, what life has in store for the future, or where I may end up.  But please know that no matter what, I love you. I will always have you in my heart. And I will be here.

A promise is a promise.
