Resuscitated Love

I am writing this letter because I never wanted to wake up and see your clothes missing.

Your lips were the only ones I wanted to be kissing.

I am writing this letter because I never wanted the light and warmth in my life to become a stake that would be buried in my heart.

The ink that falls from this pen runs with no hesitation just like my tears.

The stains it leaves outlines the pain.

I am writing this letter because I never thought I would get out of the dark pit I fell in.

Falling and with a loud boom my head, hands, legs, and chest shattered.

You were like the sun, and I was like the moon.

I wanted you to give me light, I wanted you in order to become the most beautiful sight.

But I am writing this letter because I love you.

The way a pen is designed for a purpose, the purpose of being, but instead its purpose becomes giving.

You are light and I still feel you, but if I get too close that light becomes deadly fire.

I have always seen you but I have never felt you.

I was always there for you, patiently waiting and trusting you would come back, but today under the moonlight I write to you to say that I have found the love I was always waiting for, Self-love.
