So

I don't even know where to begin

I know

It's been a long time

It has

hasn't it?

but here we are

here we are

I guess maybe

we should start from the beginning?

do you still remember?

I remember

I remember the way you looked at me.

the way the world stood still, when our eyes met

now I'm not one to believe in fate

But then you smiled

And I couldn't stop myself from smiling as well

I've seen a lot of beautiful things

but I have never seen anyone as beautiful as you

and you know what?

everyday seemed like a normal day

until you came along

I'm so sorry Alex

I know I complicated things for you

don't

life is better complicated

I'm really sorry for everything

No

you shouldn't apologize for that

because good or bad

I'd gladly do over all of the fights

re-live all of the sad memories

if it meant I could just spend a little more time with you

I'd give everything

wouldn't it be better if you just forget?

you can't just ask me to forget

because I can't

I can't

why not?

you deserve better

you deserve someone

who will always be there for you

someone who will make you happy

someone who will never leave your side

then stay

stay

some may say

that love is a choice

but it's not

you don't choose who you love

and you don't get to choose

when to stop loving

and just like everything else in life

it all just kind of happens

so when it does

everything else

becomes secondary

Alex, I know it's hard

but you have to move on

maybe you should stop thinking about the "what ifs"

and the "what could have been"

I can't

without you

I'll just be miserable

you can

because sometimes

you need to learn how to let go

in order to be happy

okay

life sometimes throws you a curve ball

it comes at you fast

and you don't know when

or where it will hit you

but will hit you hard

I guess it's just a matter

of how you pick yourself up

and move forward

I guess in reality

not everyone gets their happy ending

not everyone gets to grow old with the one they love

but the memories that you make together

all the moments you laughed

all the times you cried

those are the ones that last forever
