Because slowly, you learn to let things go.

There's so much going on my mind right now, so much I want to put into words. So much. Just so much. How much I miss a certain best friend, how much I miss you. Both the same person by the way. She got it all right, you know? She did.
"Dear Baby, I hope someday somebody wants to hold you for 20 minutes straight and that's all they do. They don't pull away. They don't look at your face. They don't try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms and hold on tight, without an ounce of selfishness in it. "
Today I was walking along the streets. And it started to drizzle. I saw the traffic lights, and somehow it naturally occured to me to stand under it. Because a very long time ago, you stood under that traffic light in the rain while you tried to catch a cab for us, I remember. And I remember when things didn't work out, how these memories would bring about heartache and pain in my chest I cannot really find the words to describe. Yet today, when I thought back upon that memory, I found a smile come upon my face. A smile because it's a beautiful memory. A smile because I no longer feel pain. A smile because I've learnt to let go. Thing is, some things are hard to forget, some things are hard to let go. But you've got to remember that someday, with time, those painful memories will become beautiful ones, and those memories that made you cry, will make your heart smile the day you let things go. It hurts now, but when you look back and smile in the future, you'll see how far you've come. And those once painful memories, would bring back a memory that would last a lifetime.

Love, it wasn't meant for someone like me.
